In this #funny, #wise,
#emotionally compelling look at modern love and finding your true path, a
proudly kid-free influencer meets the ultimate #dealbreaker . . .
It’s
the influencer’s golden rule: know your niche. Kit Kidding has found
hers on Instagram, where she gets paid to promote brands and share
expertly curated posts about her fun, fabulous, child-free life. Kit
likes kids just fine, but she passionately believes that women who
choose not to become mothers shouldn’t have to face guilt. Or judgement.
Or really hot chefs who turn out to be single dads.
Will
MacGregor is aggravating, sexy, persistent, averse to social media, and
definitely a bad idea. As soon as Kit learns his parenting status, she
vows to put their scorching one-night stand behind her and move on. But
Will and Kit are thrown together on an Instagram campaign, and the more
time she spends with him—and his whip-smart, eight-year-old daughter,
Addie—the more difficult it is to stay away, much less sustain what Will
so cleverly calls her “Resting Beach Face.” Kit’s picture-perfect
career path is suddenly clashing with the possibility of a different
future—messy, complicated, and real. Which life does she truly want?
Will she have to re-invent herself? And will love still be waiting by
the time she figures it out?
