No one has ever done imperfection so perfectly.
Jessica Chase is divorced, depleted, and one missed alarm away from a full-scale unraveling.
Relying on her family and her best friend just to get through the day, she's surviving on caffeine, her sense of humor, and radically lowered expectations. As she searches for her new normal, friendships strain, family dynamics shift, and in the quiet hours after bedtime, she wonders who she is when she's not holding everything-and everyone-together.
Josh Taylor is a newly single father haunted by the fear that love alone won't be enough.
