  'A garden without a traditional English rose is a cardinal sin – and I committed eight of those before my Ready Brek'
  Nineteen-year-old Pip is trying to find themselves through gardening. But with a dad more interested in plants than people and a mum stuck in the past, they're left to ponder life's questions alone.
  Then one day, they uncover a jacket in the attic that's been gathering dust. Bold, vibrant and very '80s, in its pocket lies a diary belonging to someone long gone. Swept up in the mystery, Pip digs into the past, unearthing secrets about an old friend their parents don't want to discuss…
  Funny, affecting and beautifully queer, Coral Wylie's play Lavender, Hyacinth, Violet, Yew tracks one family's efforts to assuage the past and plant the seeds of a better future. It was shortlisted for the Alfred Fagon Award in 2023 and premiered at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2025, directed by Debbie Hannan and starring Omari Douglas, Pooky Quesnel and Wil Johnson alongside the playwright.

  What happens when you're looking for love and all your best friends are romance readers? 
   
   
   
  Cue a clown car of ill-fated first dates that read more like failed first drafts of romantic fiction tropes than aspiring hunts for the love of her life. 
   
   
   
  Assistant conductor Izzy Lebrun spends her days riding the rails of The Green Mountain Zephyr between her home in Philadelphia and the end of the line in St. Alban's, Vermont. Beleaguered Izzy walks a tightrope—desperately trying to achieve a work-life balance between a job that pays the bills, and her dogged determination to finish her graduate degree so she can finally get a job that keeps her rooted in one place. 
   
   
   
  All she wants is to earn her PhD, get a damn cat, and find the love of her life. 
   
   
   
  Is that too much to ask? 
   
   
   
  We follow Izzy through her sometimes disastrous, sometimes implausible, but always hilarious journey through a maze of failed dates and epically bad one-night stands. Will Izzy ever get her ticket punched for a HEA or is this the end of the line for her?

  Dragon shifter Edra has always lived to serve and protect—in ages past as a knight, and in the modern world as a mytho liaison to the San Francisco PD. Behind the scenes he safeguards the mythos community from scandal—and further human hatred. When the eggs of a rare greater dragon are stolen, Edra must find and return them before the mother razes the city. 
  Edra’s partner, Jordan, has just been promoted, and he’s on the trail of several stolen mythos artifacts. Together, they track the eggs to a colony of mermaids living in the bay near Alcatraz Island. 
  But trying to separate a mermaid from her treasure is asking for trouble. 
  As Edra and Jordan grow closer, they test the bounds of human-mythos relationships. But Jordan isn’t ready to mate for life, and Edra won’t pretend to be human for Jordan’s friends. With the hills on fire and a storm brewing in the bay—and in their bed—something’s got to give.

  Gay and single, Dallas glassware entrepreneur Tomás Espara decides to vacation on a private island in the Gulf of Mexico for two months to prevent a breakdown due to his high-stress career. Although Blue Sun Island is small, it's packed with tropical essence to its gills. Tomás loves the island's hot sun, tranquility, white sand between his toes, calming wind, and the stunning sea glass he collects along his numerous beach walks.
  
  
  He also admires the sexy, well-built, alluring, and Latino groundsman Uldarico "Brass" Brassero. Dammit! Why can't he take his eyes off the chiseled blue-collar worker with the hairy chest? Tomás is here to rest and relax, not be distracted by the groundsman. Geez. This is the last thing he needs.
  
  
  It happens, though: Brass swirls Tomás's relaxation into a wild tempest and turns his world upside down. Can Tomás handle the groundsman and a real tropical storm on the way, or drown in all the island's ultimate chaos?
