In this funny and inspiring novel from the authors of The Better Half, a mess of a heroine is desperate to resolve her past so she can finally rediscover who she was always meant to be. Antonia "Toni" Arroyo's protective mother has outdated notions for her daughter's life: employ her natural beauty and marry young. But Toni has wholly different aspirations. A promising inventor and budding entrepreneur, she fights to keep her passions alive as a financially strapped mother of twins with a job in airport transportation services that has her going in circles. One treasured frequent passenger is elderly traveler Sylvia Eisenberg, Toni's sage but unofficial adviser and cheerleader. When Toni meets Sylvia's grandson, Ash, a striking venture capitalist, luck just might bend her way. With a game-changing new business endeavor in development, Toni hustles an opportunity to pitch her idea on TV's Innovation Nation. Toni's unexpected challenger? Her very own recently resurfaced, self-aggrandizing not-quite-ex-husband. As Toni's interrupted past collides with her tenuous future, she is more determined than ever to follow through on her delayed dreams. Toni's been clinging to "maybe" for so long--it's finally time for "absolutely."
