Why this must be read: Because this story is a unique look at that odd duck Renfield Turnbull, at his quirky inner life and the way he ventures into dangerous waters and plays with the sharks as if they were tiny cuddly kittens. And because as challenged as Victoria was by Fraser's steadfast virtue, she is entirely undone by Turnbull's complex simplicity.

Excerpt:
It was the day that the leaves began to fall from the trees. Ren had been distracted by the way the mid-afternoon sun shone through a fiery maple leaf, flaming symbol of home so far away, flipping and fluttering down towards him. He’d intended to catch it and take it back to his apartment, but then he tripped over a flagstone and found himself sprawled over the concrete, on top of a young lady.
