Adulting by Liz Talley

4.0

Adulting by Liz Talley finds actress Chase London in a place she has probably been before. Hung over, naked and in bed with a man she doesn't remember going there with. The dead court-issued SCRAM tracker on her ankle might be a reminder. Her surroundings are vaguely familiar but she doesn't know why. It takes seeing her mother in the kitchen and having Lorna spell it out that she realizes she is in her own Malibu beach house. Chase doesn't want to go back to rehab but she isn't going to have a choice this time.

Olivia Han is a life coach whose methods include a boot camp therapy aimed at teaching adulting. Contacted by an old friend, she agrees to take on the mess that is Chase London. Closed off and not dealing with her own issues, Olivia goes forward with the task of teaching an uninterested Chase how to be an adult. Going to her grandparents' cottage in the mountains brings up memories and betrayals from the past. The adulting boot camp becomes an emotional boot camp for Olivia and helps mend old relationships while new relationships grow.

Thank you so much to Liz Talley for allowing me to read an ARC of this book. I enjoyed the characters and wouldn't mind catching up with them again one day.
