A tense, page-turning psychological drama about the making and breaking of a family–and a woman whose experience of motherhood is nothing at all what she hoped for–and everything she feared.  This was a page turner. We had a ton of questions – especially about the ending for Ashley who joins us during our chat.

Relaxing Reads June 2021 - Ashley Audrain 'The Push'

Our latest read by Amy McCulloch is a high-altitude thriller that will truly take your breath away, it's called Breathless.

Cecily Wong is in over her head. She’s come to Manaslu, the 8th-highest peak in the world, to interview world famous mountaineer, Charles McVeigh on the last leg of a record-breaking series of summits.

She’s given up everything for this story–her boyfriend, her life savings, the peace she’s made with her climbing failures in the past–but it’s a career-making opportunity that could finally put her life back on track.

When one climber dies in what everyone else assumes is a freak accident, she fears their expedition is in danger. And by the time a second climber dies, it’s too late to turn back. 

She's stranded on a mountain in a remote region, and has quite the battle for survival against a killer who is picking them off one by one!

This month's book, our latest read is a debut rom-com novel by Sonya Singh, where we are taken on a journey of letting go, self-discovery, a woman's journey of connecting to her South-Asian roots, culture, food, family, feast and fun in "Sari Not Sari"!!

Manny Dogra is the beautiful young CEO of Breakup, a highly successful company that helps people manage their relationship breakups. As preoccupied as she is with her business, she's also planning her wedding to handsome architect Adam Jamieson while dealing with the loss of her beloved parents.

Manny has never understood why her parents who were both born in India, always wanted her to become an "All-American" girl. But that's what she did and all she knows.. She knows next to nothing about her South Asian heritage, and that's never been a problem — until her parents are no longer around, and a Photoshopped image of her that makes her skin look white appears on a major magazine cover. Now the woman who built an empire encouraging others to be true to themselves is having an identity crisis.

Relaxing Reads May 2022 - Sari, Not Sari

This month's book is a thrilling rollercoaster ride about a heist gone terribly wrong, with a plucky protagonist who will win readers’ hearts - “Lucky" by Canadian author Marissa Stapley.

Lucky Armstrong is a tough, talented grifter who has just pulled off a million-dollar heist with her boyfriend, Cary. She’s ready to start a brand-new life, with a new identity --- when things go sideways. Lucky finds herself alone for the first time, navigating the world without the help of either her father or her boyfriend, the two figures from whom she’s learned the art of the scam.

When she discovers that a lottery ticket she bought on a whim is worth millions, her elation is tempered by one big problem: cashing in the winning ticket means she’ll be arrested for her crimes. She’ll go to prison, with no chance to redeem her fortune.

As Lucky tries to avoid capture and make a future for herself, she must confront her past by reconciling with her father; finding her mother, who abandoned her when she was just a baby; and coming to terms with the man she thought she loved --- whose dark past is catching up with her, too.

This is a novel about truth, personal redemption and the complexity of being good. It introduces a singularly gifted, multilayered character who must learn what it means to be independent and honest...before her luck runs out.
