***IPPY AWARDS: BEST REGIONAL FICTION: CANADA-EAST – SILVER***
***THE GLOBE AND MAIL SUMMER'S HOTTEST READS***
Jess is a sensitive creature of habit. Cait is her passionate and impulsive best friend. And in Melt, Heidi Wicks follows the lives of these characters from their teenage years into their late thirties—through drifting desires, fake tans, economic turbulence, kids, grief, job loss, love loss, and personal renewal. Shifting radiantly between the late nineties and the present day, Melt explores the life-sustaining anatomy of friendship and the complex relationships we have with our pasts.
