    Summary

    Five years after the Inquisition’s disbandment, a disillusioned Dorian takes a leave of absence from the Magisterium and journeys south to visit Cullen, where the fully recovered once-commander runs a rehab program for templars out of his manor house in the Bannorn. Dorian, wounded grievously in both body and spirit by The Iron Bull's final betrayal, is still struggling with his losses and the man they've made him. Seeing his old friend awakens memories, both good and bad, which he'd thought long buried. As the two reconnect, spending time together on the farm with Cullen’s many dogs, they begin to realize they may have more to offer one another than simply reminiscing about a shared past.

    Summary

    Things couldn’t be going better for Napoleon: his immensely popular recipe and style column has been nationally syndicated, and he’s on the cusp of securing a new book deal that promises to finally let him move out of his minuscule Greenwich Village studio. And if the rest of the world, and his new publisher, believes that the column is written by Mrs. Josephine Solo—a sophisticated housewife who lives in a quaint Long Island village with her husband—well, what’s wrong with a little bit of storytelling if it’s not hurting anyone?

    The lie he’s crafted becomes a problem, though, when his prospective publisher gets it in his head to invite a war hero, recently returned from Vietnam, to spend Christmas with Mrs. Solo and her family. Now Napoleon has to scramble to make the fiction a reality, including strong-arming his best friend Gaby, a die-hard women’s lib and anti-war advocate, into playing the part of the perfect housewife. Even so, everything is going according to plan; that is, until said war hero shows up and the sparks that fly seriously complicate matters.

    (A screwball romantic comedy of errors based on the 1945 movie Christmas in Connecticut.)

    Summary

    The coffee machine is broken.

    Illya stares at the piece of paper stuck over the front of it, the smiley face drawn underneath the damming Out of Order as if it somehow helps. The little touch display on the top refuses to light up, no matter how many times he pokes it.

    Illya stares longingly at the broken machine, and then does what he normally does when he finds a problem he can’t immediately fix.


    There’s a freshly painted sign over the café opposite as they jimmy the back door open and slip outside, elegant cursive that’s only just readable. “Solo’s,” Gaby reads aloud. “Well, let’s see what they’ve got.”
