  Nestled in a towering fir forest on British Columbia's famous Vancouver Island, Three Rivers Campground is calling you to come relax, explore, and maybe even fall in love . . . 
   
   
   
  Emily Rivers does not have time for love. 
   
   
   
  Or dating. Or even a one night stand. 
   
   
   
  As the eldest of the Rivers sisters, she's too focused on keeping her family's campground running in the wake of a devastating tragedy to even think about romance. 
   
   
   
  When Kim Jefferies shows up at the local small town bar looking like a lesbian snack on a stick, Emily writes her off as yet another tourist just passing through—no matter how much the butterflies in her stomach try to tell her otherwise. 
   
   
   
  Only Kim's plans of 'passing through' fade the second she sees Emily Rivers, despite the fact that the whole point of her soul-searching journey was to stop falling for random women in bars who only lead her to heartbreak. 
   
   
   
  The last thing they're looking for is a love story, but with the help of some conniving sisters, an interfering bartender, and the magic of the great outdoors, that might be exactly what Kim and Emily are going to get.

  When Pax, the last dragon in all the kingdoms, wakes from his centuries-long slumber, he seeks a worthy mortal to gift three scales which will grant three wishes. Once the wishes are complete, he plans to move on and never return to the Gemstone Kingdoms. For now, he craves adventure—and a new partner in his bed. 
   
  He chooses Bertram, the recently crowned Emerald King. 
   
  It has been thirty years since the Gemstone Kingdoms entered a new golden age, but peace is proving fragile. With opponents of magic reappearing, Bertram is unsure what to do . . . except to wish that he knew what the future might hold if he never became king. 
   
  "Be careful what you wish for" rings even truer when gifted by a dragon. 
   
  Bertram and Pax embark on a journey through time, across kingdoms, and into their own hearts to learn what may be missing from their lives and what they might want in a different future together.

  NeuroQueer - A Neurodivergent...

  In this warm and gloriously candid memoir about ADHD, queerness, love, and everything nobody thought to explain, CJ DeBarra – Irish journalist, non-binary West Cork exile, and lifelong owner of a brain that refused to behave – asks whether reaching their mid-thirties might finally be enough time to understand themselves.
  Diagnosed with ADHD at eleven in a small West Cork village, CJ was given a label but never an explanation. Why did friendships keep breaking down? Why did relationships burn out? Why did their body and heart never seem to want the same things at the same time? Careening from art college to recession-era Dublin to Nottingham – falling hard, loving deeply, and only recently beginning to join the dots – CJ arrives, two decades later, at the question that should have been answered long ago: why hadn't anyone told them?
  Part memoir, part guide, NeuroQueer fearlessly explores the raw realities of heartbreak, desire and queer identity, while shedding light on the alarmingly low diagnosis rates for women, transgender, and non-binary individuals. CJ draws on academic research, medical studies and the lived experience of other queer ADHD people to ask what might have been different if someone had told them sooner – and demands better for everyone still waiting to be told.
