About the Book
Accidental Love & Death is a lesbo romance/50 Shades of Gay mash-up set in Toronto’s throbbing Church street neighborhood. The story follows heartbroken, lovesick Jordan, as she struggles to recover from being dumped by the supposed love of her life, Alex. To cope with her loss, Jordan decides to pen a self-help break-up book, but soon discovers all she can genuinely write is more in the theme of how to have a breakdown instead of a break-up.
Jordan’s summer becomes an unpredictable mess: boozy one-night stands, accidentally sleeping with her best friend and feverish sex with her ex after a night of sushi and sake. Just when a sense of normalcy and palpable bliss returns to Jordan’s life, a tragedy defines where her heart belongs, and where it never did. She comes to realize that everything is not happily ever after, but happy for awhile.
There are moves, loves, criss-crossing ex-girlfriends, runaway cats, and champagne toasts. And throw in a pregnant ex, a funeral and a marriage proposal--enough to make Jordan’s head buzz like a beehive in a summer that makes the circle of life one tight knot.
