Not Your Type
When Ava meets Parker in an LGBT therapy group, she’s hesitant to get close to someone new. Ava’s traumatic past with relationships, and her inability to fully embrace her asexuality has made it hard for her to connect with anyone. But when she starts seeing Parker everywhere, she finds it hard to ignore how familiar Parker is, and how at peace Parker’s presence in her life makes her feel.
Parker is less than a year out of a toxic relationship when she starts seeing Ava all over town. At the gym where she works, at the coffee shop she frequents, and then at the LGBT therapy group she decides to attend on a whim. She takes this as a sign from the universe, but is shocked to find that Ava doesn’t believe in fate, and none of the charm and charisma that has worked before will quite cut it this time.
As the two grow closer, they both have to decide if holding onto the things their exes taught them are also holding them back from their future.

Waking Rory
17-year-old Even (Ev-an) McCoy is always up to no good, chasing any unhealthy coping mechanism she can find. Her workaholic uncle (and guardian), Nash is finally at his limit with her arrests and truancy. She’s one year from 18, and if she doesn’t straighten up at this summer internship, it’s boarding school for her. It seems simple enough: bring people coffee, answer some phone calls, wait out the summer. That is, until she wakes Sleeping Beauty.
Now Even has to decide if true love is worth the risk of heartache and boarding school. Can she accept that fairy-tales do exist enough to get her own Happily Ever After?
