"A queer footy romance set in Melbourne? Count me in!
Theo & Jake are footy teammates who go from enemies to friends to lovers, in a really beautiful romance that also plays into the rampant racism, sexism and homophobia in the AFL, not to mention men" Read more of this review » |

"This book was MAGICAL in every sense of the world. So charming. So halloweeny. The absolute picture-perfect romantic pick of the spooky season! I adored Pepper and Christina individually as protagonists and even more-so as a couple. Both the mystery "

“My condition isn't an impediment. I'm not defined by it, and it doesn't limit me. It doesn't make me less, or different, and even if I fail, I'll just get back up and try again. So please don't come back into my life, unless you understand it isn't yours to run.”

“For a brief second, I wondered if I should go back to the kitchen and hide there until he went away.
No. Ellie 2.0 was made of stronger stuff. I steeled myself, viciously stomping on the tiny seed of hope that was beginning to sprout in my heart. My reasonable, levelheaded brain wisely advised that I should approach him with the caution I would reserve for great white sharks, taipan snakes, and saltwater crocodiles.”

“Until you realize you need to stop controlling my life, you can't be a part of it, and I can't be a part of yours."
She placed her cup back on the table, her gaze furious. "That's not the correct response. I'll give you five minutes to reconsider your answer."
"That was the right answer, and my final one. I'm staying, and no amount of emotional or physical blackmail can change my mind."
She let out a loud, impatient sigh. "Stop being dramatic. You're always acting as if I'm doing something horrible, but you know I'm only looking out for your best interests."
"No, you're not. All you care about is the family business, the status and privileges that come with it. You don't care about my best interests or my happiness."
Her tone turned frosty. "Listen carefully, Ellie. I'm saving you from making a terrible mistake. If you're doing this for him, it's not a smart decision, and you'll regret it. You don't belong here, and people like us don't belong with people like Alec Mackenzie."
"I'm doing this for myself." My tone rose. "You may not care, but I have a life here. I'm running my own business. I truly appreciate everything you've done for me and our family, but it's clear that you value the family business more than your own child. I've had enough of living my life being controlled and suffocated by you. It's time for you to move on.”
