"Bridget Jones with a lot more wine! This story is hilarious, feel-good and relatable in all the best ways!" - Grace K @ HQ. She's just quit her high-flying job, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Can Alice find a sense of purpose in the wreckage? ***** Alice's life isn't going to plan. She's tied to her phone, pointlessly managing PR for a sinking corporate megalith. She's become a bit player in her kids' lives, and her marriage is coasting on fumes. Forcing herself into action with a rash resignation, Alice sets out to make a positive impact on the world around her. But how? Meditation leads to napping, and her attempts to get closer to her teenage daughter result in the discovery of a secret that leaves her at a loss. As the months tick by and a sense of purpose continues to elude her, Alice finds herself forming bonds with the most unlikely characters: the young woman who panhandles outside her old office; the homeless boy who sits cross-legged outside the liquor store with his ginger cat; her own dog walker who, it turns out, knows a thing or two about developing a good crema. Testing the limits of marriage, motherhood and the Toronto subway system -- can Alice find her way into a purpose-driven life? Or will it all be one giant hangover? [*Wattpad Editor's Pick 2018*] [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]] Readers say: "This had me laughing so loud that my sister came to check up on me to see if I'm OK!!!" "...the new Bridget Jones, a working woman's take on the digital age." About the Author: Working mother and red wine enthusiast, Renee lives in Toronto with her flawed but wonderful family (seriously, who left socks on the kitchen counter?) in a flawed but wonderful house (what *is* that smell in the basement?) where she writes flawed but wonderful stories about what it is to be a woman today.

Minho never expected college to feel like stepping into a new life. He planned on quiet mornings, pink sweaters, sketchbooks filled with half-finished ideas, and a tiny dorm that smelled like laundry detergent and freedom. He didn't plan on him. Professor Hwang Hyunjin wasn't just another instructor on campus. He was a name spoken with respect, a presence that made rooms fall silent, a figure as precise and untouchable as the art he created. Strict. Sharp. Controlled. The kind of man who lived behind rules and expected others to follow them. Minho was supposed to be just one more student in a crowded room. But from the moment their eyes met- from the second Minho saw the way Hyunjin looked at him like he was something worth studying- everything tilted. A student shouldn't look at his professor like that. A professor shouldn't look back. Yet they fall into a game neither of them names: stares held too long, breaths caught too easily, careful steps across a line neither of them should cross. It's messy. It's fragile. And sometimes, it's the one thing that can ruin everything. This is a story about want disguised as curiosity, rules bent under pressure, emotions that grow in the quiet moments, and two people trying-and failing-to pretend they don't feel what they shouldn't.

After surviving the first wave of the corporate battle, Winston Ballowr remains in control of Ballowr Capital-but the war is far from over. Otto Densmore escalates the conflict, launching a full proxy fight that will allow shareholders to decide who truly deserves to lead the company. With investors dividing into opposing camps, the future of Ballowr Capital now rests on a single vote. Among them stands Adelaide Farrel, a powerful institutional investor whose decision may determine the outcome of the entire war. As media pressure intensifies and the final vote approaches, Winston must do something he has never done before-prove that he is not just the man who inherited the company, but the one capable of protecting it. Yet while the world of Wall Street turns the conflict into a spectacle, Winston approaches the fight in the only way he knows how: quietly, honestly, and without pretending to be someone else. Because in the end, the battle for Ballowr Capital will not be decided by who wants the company the most- but by who is willing to stay and take responsibility for it.

So most of the time, every conversation turns into an argument. And every glance into a silent challenge. They are enemies and that's all they'll ever be, right?

People say that you can tell whether a person is good or bad depending on how they treat animals. I agree with that saying, too. Sila ang pinaka vulnerable at walang kalaban-laban sa ating mga tao. Whenever they misbehave, do reckless stuff or destroy things, they deserve the most patience and understanding because they can't think like us - humans. Kaya naniniwala ako na kapag malapit sa hayop ang isang tao, that means he or she is a kind person. Or so I thought. 'Cuz right now, I'm with the worst person I've ever met - a known veterinarian named fucking Rhan.
