LIKE YOU, BUT BETTER follows a makeup artist who lands a gig at CBC TV even though she dreams of having the balls to trade cosmetics for acrylics and become a real artist. (She'd also like to have the courage to hump her downstairs neighbour.) 

Will the secrets hidden in a painting of Pierre Trudeau depicted as a well-hung centaur bring all her dreams to fruition? Or will it come out that she's not quite qualified for her new job when she's tasked with bleaching the hair of a show host who also happens to be her girl crush? Also, there's the pesky matter of her colleague, Phil Collins, whom she foolishly boinked.
 
Set at the intersection of serious art and celebrity culture, LIKE YOU, BUT BETTER lovingly satirizes the CBC and Canada's media landscape while examining the recursive inferiority complex between Canada and the United States, Hamilton and Toronto, and finally among siblings and friends.

Now, years later . . . ***** Priya Seth is determined to win the coveted one-year mentorship with her idol at New York's hottest law firm. Her rival? Last night's hookup, Hadrian Marek. Despite having a privileged upper hand, Hadrian is willing to form an alliance. Priya's only condition? No sex.

But when a video of her cheating fiancé goes viral, her world comes crashing down until she gets an offer that merges her passion for news and activism. The caveat? Long hours and travel away from her father. As these young women discover that achieving dreams is often erratic, and drama is as inevitable as adulting, the foundation of their friendship begins to crack, putting their sisterhood to the test [word count: 90,000-100,000 words]
