Please Don't Go (Volume 1)
A tender-hearted college sports romance about a dedicated swimmer trying to stay afloat amid life’s pressures and the campus baseball standout whose kindness makes him impossible to resist.
Limited sprayed edges edition!
Josefine Resendiz is struggling to figure out her life. The only thing that makes sense to her is swimming, but between grieving her mother and feeling lost in general, she's sinking and isn't sure how to float back up to the surface.
Daniel Garcia, budding ray of sunshine and captain of the baseball team, has life figured out. At least, that's what everyone assumes. On the surface, he's the embodiment of happiness. But beneath it all, guilt and grief have consumed him since his brother passed away. Unsure how to deal with his feelings, he bottles them up and masks the pain behind hopeful smiles.
That's until he stumbles upon Josefine one evening – somewhere neither of them is supposed to be. They surprise themselves by opening up to each other, and by the end of the night, they're no longer strangers. But then Josefine disappears.
He can't stop thinking about her. She wants to forget him. But fate seems to have plans for them.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
