Really (Almost) True Story

Patricia is a PPP (Perpetual People Pleaser) who's exhausting herself to take care of everyone else, only to feel unseen by the people around her. Her employer is considering yet another round of layoffs. Then her husband surprises her with their first vacation in years. Also, he's bringing along his mother, Evie, who doesn't seem to like Patricia much, and Evie's wiener dog, Midge. Yay? Things are tense. Then Patricia accidentally becomes a bit famous. Or infamous. With the help of Midge and Patricia's new-found friend, Sunny, Patricia tries to navigate her new status without losing her job, her marriage, or her mind. Really (Almost) True Story is a feel-good beach read with found family, friendship, dogs, and music, set in the beautiful beaches of northern California.
