Coles The Words Come Late: Three Neurodivergent Love Stories at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Lila has spent her whole life learning to read rooms. Then, at an animal shelter on a Saturday morning, she meets a man who does not seem to want to be read.
Jake barely speaks. He does not ask her to perform. He waits patiently while she finds the end of a sentence.
The Words Come Late is a collection of three linked love stories about two neurodivergent people learning, slowly, how to be loved without exhausting themselves.
From quiet Saturdays at the shelter to their first real misunderstanding, and then to a family lake house where Jake shows Lila the cove—a four-minute paddle to a place where nobody is and she can finally let her face rest—their relationship grows through patience, honesty, and small acts of care.
For readers who have spent a lifetime explaining themselves—and for those who have finally found the person who does not need them to.
A warm, low-drama collection of three linked love stories. Approximately 13,000 words; ideal for a single afternoon's read.
