Summary
Matt owns Doctor Rock, the best independent vinyl record store in late 80’s London. He has extensive knowledge of what he sells—everything, really, even if his preference is 70’s music. He’s passionate, nerdy and couldn’t dream of a better place to be than behind his counter or scouring garage sales for gems that will end up either in his personal collection or on a shelf in his store. He’s got some regulars, and he feels happy every time a newcomer becomes one.
Mello might become one of those, as he steps into the store for the first time and leaves with a few records Matt recommended and a crush on the owner. He’ll come back for sure, maybe not just for the music, especially since he’s a metalhead and a pure product of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, and he knows nothing about 70’s music. But he’s ready to pretend…

Summary
When Christine comes down with chicken pox at thirty-six, Mary Beth is the one who stays.
It should be simple: soup, clean sheets, keeping her comfortable until the fever breaks.
But there’s something about the quiet, the closeness, the way Christine lets herself be taken care of that shifts things—slowly, then all at once. By the time they’re alone together again weeks later, neither of them is pretending not to notice anymore.
Some things don’t go back the way they were.

Summary
Karina Yu spent her life being what others expected her to be: the daughter who never complains, the wife who never desires, the woman who fades into the background to fit in. Trapped in a marriage that was never a home, she runs away for a few days—not out of courage, but out of desperation to breathe.
Tucson was supposed to be just that: air. Until Winter crosses her path. Insolent and free in a way that hurts. The kind of freedom that, in Karina, had always slept in chains.
What begins as a distraction becomes a necessity. Winter ignites something in her that was dead, and Karina, for the first time, faces her own wreckage: the fear, the guilt, the desire she always kept as a sin.
Between empty roads, the raw heat of the desert, and a romance that holds no promise beyond the present, Karina is pushed to the edge of herself. And there, where lies no longer sustain anything, she must face the question she has always put off:
Who is she when no one demands she be someone else? And what is she willing to lose in order to finally choose herself?This story is also available in Portuguese on Wattpad, under the username babedongie.
