The hilarious, heartwarming story of a disgraced former blogger attempting to reinvent herself in the cut-throat world of tech startups while co-parenting with her ex-husband, for fans of Amazing Grace Adams and The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus. Molly Wells was once the queen of mom blogging until an unhinged post about her ex-husband's affair destroyed her career (turns out that family brands don't love sponsoring content about busty baristas and secret sexcapades). Three years later, she's still trying to recover. A ghostwriting gig at a buzzy Portland startup that makes apps and tests for gifted kids tees up the potential for a permanent job, not to mention the professional redemption she so desperately wants. However, with the startup at risk of running out of funds, Molly must find a way to help the founder save the company and outsmart its most recent hire Ana Gooding, a Sh-E-O consultant with her own devious motivations. A gig secretly ghostwriting for her boss's biggest investor, a huge crush on a controversial entrepreneur who lives in his Sprinter van, and her son's social life implosion add even more complications to Molly's big Midlife Reboot. As the promises of the city's quirky startup community give way to hidden agendas and outright betrayals, Molly's comeback dreams threaten to derail. With consequences too serious to be remedied by a hot night in the back of a deceivingly expensive van, Molly comes to a crossroads: Will she ever find her voice--and herself--again, or will failure be her permanent status update?
