About "Honk If You've Been Married to Me"

How do you find love that lasts when everything in your life has taught you that you’re a failure at picking the right man?

It’s the one thing quick-witted, beautiful, fiercely capable Shelly Green just can’t seem to figure out. Sure, she’s conquered business, motherhood, addiction, and keeping her friends laughing. But lasting love still eludes her.

When heartbreak sends her to a jungle medicine retreat, Shelly plunges into ancient spiritual ceremonies meant to crack her open, challenge old beliefs, and finally help her change the patterns keeping love out of reach.

But back home, a forbidden entanglement with Dare—a magnetic, self-destructive ex-football player—tempts her to return to old ways, while Banner—a grounded, kind-hearted man—offers a different kind of love: steady, generous, and real.

Between ecstatic dance nights, poolside confessions, family drama, and her own inner turmoil, Shelly finds herself facing the one question that will make or break her: What does it mean to choose the person who truly fits? And can she finally choose herself, too?

Wry, heartfelt, and deeply honest, Honk If You've Been Married to Me is a novel about friendship, healing, self-discovery, and the messy, magical road to finding a love that finally fits.
