Everyone remembers their first love. Holly certainly remembers Alex. But she decided ten years ago that love wasnâe(tm)t about mix tapes and seizing the moment âe" though sheâe(tm)s not exactly sure itâe(tm)s about secret dates with your boss, either. But what if the feelings never really went away? Alex wants to make every moment of his new job count. Itâe(tm)s a fresh start in a big city, and heâe(tm)s almost certain that moving to London has nothing to do with Holly. Almost. How do you know if it was meant to beâe¦ or never meant to happen at all? A brilliantly funny, feel-good story of first love, second chances and everything inbetween, perfect for fans of romantic comedies like Love Actually, Notting Hill and Bridget Jones.

This anthology celebrates and explores the particular qualities of the writing of a nation. The stories evoke what is distinctive about Canadians and their relationship to their country; their attitude towards its vastness; their valuing of individuality; historical and current problems of identity; attitudes towards the nation's cultural mix; the country's increasing urbanisation; growing interest in women's rights; and attitudes towards the country's future. The stories will appeal across the ability range of 14-17 year old students, in class and with teacher support. They will produce an interesting and enlivening resource for enquiry and responsive discussion, and are particularly suitable for developing a multi-cultural perspective.
