Summary
She held her breath for a moment.
The brunette had let her hair down. The poet couldn’t remember a time when her hair wasn’t pinned back neatly, but now chestnut curls cascaded down past her shoulders, framing her delicate features. How often did Austin have the privilege of seeing her like this? Her stomach turned sourly at the thought.
She looked so soft and vulnerable it made Emily want to fly upstairs and put pen to paper. It hit her quite suddenly that this would be happening all the time. Family breakfast with everyone. And Sue, with her big brown eyes and hair that was surely as soft as it looked.
I’m in trouble, she thought to herself. Though she refused to acknowledge the how or the why.
_____
Sue Gilbert moves into the Dickinson Homestead after some news. Emily has only ever known her as Austin's gf until they're suddenly in close quarters. Which should end well.

Summary
They grew up side by side—through high school, through college, through all the versions of themselves they didn’t quite understand yet.
Somewhere along the way, they fell in love. Somewhere along the way, they lost each other.
This is the story of everything they were, everything they became, and what it means to choose yourself—even when it means letting go.

Summary
Emily is a lover of Christmas. Favourite holiday: it always makes her feel warm and cheery, but this year her Christmas could shift from her usual quiet existence and not-so-quiet family traditions with her family to one where she's thrown into the tumultuous life of Sue Gilbert after numerous encounters at a shared favourite coffee shop that grow to be more, and Emily's unsure if she wants to be wrapped up in it. Her trust isn't easily won, and Sue's history with Emily's brother, a story Emily had zero knowledge of till Austin changes that, brutally so, and Sue’s ongoing situation make it far from easy. But when is something that's worth it ever easy?
