Goodreads reviewer Bruce Gargoyle wrote, “If you’ve ever thought that your phone was possessed, or otherwise controlled by nefarious outside sources then this is the anthology for you! … My favourite of the collection was ‘What You’re Called to Do’ by Dale Cameron Lowry. … I’d recommend this one for short story lovers who like their technology bang up to date.”
"All Is Well"

Alysia Constantine, author of Sweet, writes, “What’s lovely is that the story sticks to its guns about the relevance of the attraction between the two men without ever devolving into an ‘Eff you, Mormons!’ sensibility. These men find a way to make their faith work with their love, in a manner that’s slow, respectful, and real.”
"Home"
Seven years after leaving the Mormon Church, American coffee roaster Jayden Oaks rekindles a friendship with his former crush and fellow missionary, Rawiri Wilson, a Maori New Zealander who’s also in the coffee business. When they reunite at a coffee roasting championship in Auckland, New Zealand, it becomes obvious the spark that’s always existed between them is more than simple friendship.

"American Master Bakers"
Dale Cameron Lowry’s “American Master Bakers” was first published in this collection of 18 romantic stories.
