She's wrong.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFresh from her honeymoon and desperate to fit into Kirk's sophisticated world, Abbi finds herself navigating not just marble countertops and staff meetings, but a household assistant who seems determined to manage every aspect of her life-including her friendships.\u003cbr\u003eBetween stress-baking disasters that achieve sentience and conducting scientific studies on fountain acoustics to avoid emotional conversations, Abbi's tendency to spiral into hilarious tangents becomes both her coping mechanism and her charm. But when her best friend Betsy comes to visit, a simple afternoon by the pool becomes a crisis that threatens everything Abbi has worked to build.\u003cbr\u003eCaught between the woman who taught her to love herself and the man who wants to help her grow, Abbi must figure out how to honor both relationships without losing herself in the process-all while maintaining her sanity and her right to be appropriately ridiculous.\u003cbr\u003eThis is a story about finding balance between structure and freedom, between becoming better and staying true to who you are. It's about learning that the right kind of love doesn't ask you to choose between growth and authenticity-it helps you discover they're the same thing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA contemporary romance featuring domestic discipline, emotional growth, spiral-worthy dialogue, and the kind of friendship that survives even the most inappropriate dinner party stories.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFor mature readers.
