  Katerine "Kit" Tanner has survived a year without her mother. With her sister, Rae's help, she tries to move on with her life. She goes back to school; she moves into a new apartment building; and she meets a fantastic woman named Hailee Quinn who is part of a queer improv group on campus. When Hailee invites Kit along for some fast laughs, it should be an easy decision to change her life and open her heart again.
  
  
  The problem? Hailee is a bit too much for Kit. Tall, loud, and smart as a whip, Hailee Quinn has is a smarty pants extraordinaire -- but she comes by it honestly. A childhood stutter, plus her bisexuality, means she spends a lot of time feeling erased. Now she's determined to not let that happen ever again.
  
  
  Can both of these strong, hard-headed women put their past behind them and fall in love? Or will they only be able to share jokes -- and bad ones, at that -- while their friends' lives bloom around them?

  I'm the prince of the night; the fulfillment of every one of your desires; the human form of every dirty thought you've ever had. 
   
   
   
  If you can afford me, of course. 
   
   
   
  Luca DiMarco can afford me. The flashy socialite and the hottest face of the upper echelon, he's loaded enough that entire weekends with me are nothing more than pocket change. 
   
   
   
  Luca is relentless. I gave him something in our encounters which he can't live without. And he's doing everything in his near-infinite power to keep it. He's going out of his way to make me feel good. It almost feels like he cares. And he's making it really hard to resist the attention. 
   
   
   
  Boys like me don’t go around falling in love with their clients. They don't expect a Prince Charming to carry them away. Yet both of those things seem to be happening to me. 
   
   
   
  But there are greater forces at work trying to tear us apart. And I'm not brave enough to face them. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  The only way to find herself is to lose herself 
  A year ago, Amy Campbell’s life was perfect. She had a beautiful wife, her career was on an upward trajectory, and her friendship circle was uncomplicated. Now she’s a thirty-five-year-old widow who relies on wine and a dysfunctional situationship to cope. 
  Aware her life is hanging together by a thread, Amy reluctantly attends group therapy. As she works through her grief and opens up to others in the group, she forms an unexpected bond that gives her life renewed purpose. But as she strives to become a normal functioning adult again, strains on her new relationship, conflict with her best friend, and the pressures of everyday life throw her into turmoil. 
  The more Amy tries to redefine herself, the more her old self surfaces until the two collide and she’s forced to confront her reality and make a decision about her future. 
  Can Amy find the courage to say goodbye to her late wife and allow herself to love again? Or is the risk too great? 
  Normal Functioning Adult is a story of grief, friendship and love told with heart and humour.

  Thresh & Hold

  A New York Times New-in-Poetry feature 
  Marlanda Dekine’s debut collection is a holy, radical unlearning and reclamation of self. What does it mean to be a Gullah-Geechee descendant from a rural place where a third of the nation’s founding wealth was harvested by trafficked West and Central Africans? Dekine’s poems travel across age and time, signaling that both the past and future exist in the present. Through erasure and persona, Dekine reimagines intergenerational traumas and calls institutions from the Works Progress Administration narratives to modern-day museums to task. 
  Beyond gospel music, fear, and the stories of generations past, Thresh & Hold offers magic, healing, and innovative pathways to manifest intimacy. Dekine remembers, remakes, and brings forth their many selves, traveling far in order to deeply connect to a spiritual home within and all around them, calling: “I am listening to Spirit. I am not dying today.”  
  Marlanda Dekine is the winner of the 2021 New Southern Voices Poetry Prize, judged by Gabrielle Calvocoressi.

  Walt Pierce is having a terrible day. His girlfriend dumped him, his phone died, and now his car is in the ditch, during a blizzard, in the middle of nowhere. A nearby goat farmer, Skylar, comes to his rescue, and when the two of them get snowed in for the weekend, Walt finds desires rising to the surface—desires that he thought he'd put behind him long ago. The fact that Walt can't keep his hands off Skylar? Doesn't matter. Walt's straight, even if they hook up, and even if he can't stop thinking about Skylar once the snow stops falling and he's safely back home. Right?

  Three wrongs can't make a right. 
  I’ve spent six years building a life that isn’t defined by my father’s sins—a beautiful girlfriend, a thriving nonprofit, safe dreams that won’t get me into trouble. Someone with my family’s reputation can’t step out of line without drawing attention, and they definitely can’t coach professional swimmers. 
  My carefully controlled world starts to unravel on my summer vacation, when a mysterious boy catches my eye. He’s intoxicating, beautiful, and an incredible swimmer. His body makes me question everything about my sexuality, and his talent makes me desperate to become his coach. Too bad the only lawyer who will help me navigate the PR nightmare of opening a coaching program happens to be a rude, self-absorbed, sexy-as-sin older man who doesn’t even like me. I shouldn’t want either of them, but my mixed up heart wants both. 
  When one explosive moment in an empty locker room ties all three of us together, we start down a path we can’t turn back from, even as my past threatens to destroy my future. We weren’t supposed to be more than a single night’s mistake. I can’t do anything to threaten my life’s work. But I’m not sure I can live without them, either. 
  Breaking free from the past has a cost for all three of us, but I don’t know if we can afford to pay it.
