About this ebook

Kelly Bennett’s full of questions she can’t answer. Has she really found a boyfriend who won’t cheat like her ex-husband did? Why is her younger sister so much better than her at everything? Is the employee she just hired good enough for the gaming store she loves? What’s the real reason that her daughter took a year off instead of going to university? And, most importantly, shouldn’t a woman who’s nearly fifty feel more in control of her life?

At her weekly Dungeons & Dragons game, Kelly finds a way to get the answers she craves without the fear of making bad decisions: her trusty dice. Letting random chance choose her new hair colour and what to order for dinner works great, so she takes it further. Too far? That’ll depend on what the dice decide. And on whether Kelly can somehow learn to trust her own instincts and take initiative in her own life.

"Roll or Initiative" is book 18 in the "Toronto Collection" set of loosely connected novels. While most of the books are not sequels, your favourite characters will reappear across the books in the collection, letting you follow their lives after their original book ends.
