Fangirl / by Rowell, Rainbow,author.;
Cath and Wren are identical twins, and until recently they did absolutely everything together. Now they're off to university and Wren's decided she doesn't want to be one half of a pair any more - she wants to dance, meet boys, go to parties and let loose. It's not so easy for Cath. She's horribly shy and has always buried herself in the fan fiction she writes, where she always knows exactly what to say and can write a romance far more intense than anything she's experienced in real life. Without Wren Cath is completely on her own and totally outside her comfort zone. She's got a surly room-mate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words ... And she can't stop worrying about her dad, who's loving and fragile and has never really been alone. Now Cath has to decide whether she's ready to open her heart to new people and new experiences, and she's realizing that there's more to learn about love than she ever thought possible ...

The Winter wives : a novel / by MacIntyre, Linden,author.;
"Two old friends, who first met in university, get together for a weekend of golfing: Allen, a football hero, worldly and financially successful, and his quieter friend, nicknamed Bryon, lame from a childhood injury, a smart fellow who became a lawyer but who has never left home, staying put so he could care for a mother with Alzheimer's. During a long night of drinking, the fault lines between them start to show. One of the biggest: the two men married sisters, though Allen was the one who walked down the aisle with Peggy, the sister both of them loved, and Bryon had to settle for Annie. Out on the course the next morning, Allen suffers a stroke. In one traumatic moment, he loses control of his life, his wife and his business empire, which turns out to have been built on lies and the illegal drug trade. And Bryon has to suddenly confront his own weaknesses and strengths, his tangled relationship with Allen and the Winter sisters. Both the woman he married and the one he thought was the love of his life. Brimming with twists and turns, no one will anticipate the lengths to which Bryon will go to make sense of his life."--

When she gets a job at a local diner where Amber once worked, she connects with people who knew her sister.
