  1. Summary

    That day in the mountains, that discovery in the ship, that moment by the crackling fire–it bonded five strangers together and transformed them into lifelong friends, into a team, no longer individuals but something more, something good. They have the whole world against them, but they have each other on their side, and they're ready to face every obstacle that comes there way. A collection of works to shine light on these singular pieces and their becoming a whole.

    Summary

    There was glitter on the floor. It was from last week, Svetlana was pretty sure, when her auntie Carol (no relation) had hired a fake fireman to strip down to his gold lamé G-string in her mom’s hospice room. The guy was younger than Svetlana by a few years, with toned golden brown skin, an excellent sense of rhythm, and enough emotional intelligence (or acting skills) to seem completely unfazed by the prospect of shaking his glittery ass in a dying woman’s hospital room for an audience of half a dozen loud-ass post-menopausal women—plus one token white boy–hooting and hollering and clapping along to Whitney. Svetlana had hidden behind her cell phone camera recording the party from the doorway, experiencing all possible emotions and none at once. That was a good day. Ilya had even been able to cajole her mom into eating half a piece of sheet cake by flirting and nagging as only he could.

    OR: Svetlana's mom just died. She's inherited one third of a beauty shop in Boston but her dream job is waiting for her in Ottawa. Her situationship is being too fucking nice. Shane won't let Sveta touch the funeral binder. And there are secrets hidden in boxes that could change how Sveta and Ilya understand their shared past.

    Summary

    There was a burst of static, a gusty sigh. "Shanushka, you have the biggest 'bottom eyes' I have ever seen."

    "That's not a thing."

    "It is absolutely a thing, and that thing is you," she cackled, and he hung up the phone, ears so hot they should have been smoking.

    Or, Shane meets Svetlana first, and it changes everything and nothing.
