Summary
38 year old Sydney Adamu is tired. She has lost the love of her life, her business and now has to start from zero after years of putting all of her work, time and energy into becoming a success.
25 year old Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto is exhausted. He has lost the most important person in his life and now has to go back home to face all of the trauma that he had been running from.
When they find each other it is like the stars aligned. They are everything that they need and are missing in their pursuit of greatness, however, Carmy’s intensity makes Sydney question if maybe she should give up and look for stability instead.
Realizing he can't do this without her, Carmy asks Sydney to give him 1 year. 1 year to open their dream restaurant. 1 year to make it work. 1 year to be great.

Summary
The review is gonna be good. Don’t worry about that.”
“Don’t tell me not to fucking worry.”
Carmy bristles, steps back a bit. “I’m doing this shit for yo- for-for all of us. I told you this was how it’s done, you said you wanted to do this with me—"
“That’s when I thought you actually saw me, Carmen. When-when you listened to my ideas and took my opinions into consideration. I’m not your babysitter and I’m not your fucking yes man. You don’t have any fucking idea what it’s like to be me in this industry for even a day. This is it. This is all I have and you’re ruining it.”
**********

Summary
"Your brother is...unruly. Yet, one cannot fight fire with fire. That much our forebears have taught us, Your Grace. We must fight fire with water, as it has been done for thousands of years."
Daemon Targaryen and Clarice Hightower have never seen eye to eye. She looks down upon him for his fiery - some would say foolish - impulsivity, he mocks her for her careful - some would say craven - scheming. A common enemy finally binds them together but their alliance is built on the treacherous quicksand of the Red Keep. For now, they might need each other to play the most dangerous game of all, but so close to the sea, the wind changes quickly and loyalty or affection are luxuries players of this game simply cannot afford.
