Sinopsis

Seven years ago as the economy collapsed amidst ever more serious climate disasters, Ethan Casey went into a billionaire's survival bunker in the wilds of Alberta. Now suspecting his boss is not telling the bunker's staff the truth, Ethan sneaks out to learn if the world is really in chaos. He meets forest ranger Jules Martell, who tells him the world is changed but is rebuilding, and that he and everyone in the bunker would be welcome in the nearby town of Goose Lodge.
Ethan returns to the bunker to tell the others the truth, prompting many of them to leave with him. Ethan had to go back to bring the others out, but he had to return to Goose Lodge to find Jules again. This time, he knows he will never return to that hole in the ground. Jules becomes Ethan's guide to the town, and the way they live there, introducing him to strange ideas Ethan must learn to embrace. As they grow closer Ethan also becomes a forest ranger, and he and Jules act as liaisons to the bunker, tasked with persuading the last holdouts to leave. Soon only Ethan's old boss, Sinclair, remains stubbornly locked in, with a vault of gold and gems, and dwindling food supplies. 
Spending time alone in the forest with Jules feels like all Ethan needs to make him happy. But the forest holds secrets and sadness for Jules, and the town is not the perfect utopia Ethan thought at first. And Sinclair, alone in the bunker, is growing ever more afraid and bitter, and determined to ruin the happiness Ethan has found with Jules.

    A moving and deeply personal excavation of Indigenous beauty and passion in a suffering world 
     
     
     
    In prose that is evocative and sensual, unabashedly queer and visceral, raw and autobiographical, Joshua Whitehead writes of an Indigenous body in pain, coping with trauma. Deeply rooted within, he reaches across the anguish to create a new form of storytelling he calls "biostory"—beyond genre, and entirely sovereign. Through this narrative perspective, Making Love with the Land recasts mental health struggles and our complex emotional landscapes from a nefarious parasite on his (and our) well-being to kin, even a relation, no matter what difficulties they present to us. Whitehead ruminates on loss and pain without shame or ridicule but rather highlights waypoints for personal transformation. Written in the aftermath of heartbreak, before and during the pandemic, Making Love with the Land illuminates this present moment in which both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people are rediscovering old ways and creating new ones about connection with and responsibility toward each other and the land. 
     
     
     
    Intellectually audacious and emotionally compelling, Whitehead shares his devotion to the world in which we live and brilliantly—even joyfully—maps his experience on the land that has shaped stories, histories, and bodies from time immemorial.

    She violated every rule of therapy to save her patient, and herself. But at what cost? Her career, her marriage, and everything she thought she knew about desire. 
    Surrender to Desire is an erotic lesbian romance set at Christmas, where quiet longing turns into a love that refuses to be denied. Therapist Olivia fights a losing battle against her feelings for Alison, the woman who comes to her in pieces and begins to put her back together. When their forbidden connection moves from the counselling room to carefully negotiated intimacy, both women are forced to confront who they really are. Boundaries are discussed, consent is explicit, trust is tested, and aftercare matters. 
    As their attraction evolves into explorations of power and submission, Olivia learns to let go of control while Alison discovers the strength of a confident dominant. Within the chosen family of the Awakening of Desire series, they find people who understand that love does not always follow conventional rules. Secrets surface, loyalties are questioned, and the holidays become a crucible for truth, forgiveness, and second chances.
