Two sisters have one summer to crush their comfort zones and save their grandmother's legacy in this sweet, sexy, and heartfelt novel by Ali Brady, author of The Beach Trap .
Hannah and Libby need a miracle. The PR agency they inherited from their grandmother is losing clients left and right, and the sisters are devastated at the thought of closing. The situation seems hopeless-until in walks Lou, an eccentric self-help guru who is looking for a new PR agency. Her business could solve all their problems-but there's a catch. Whoever works with Lou must complete a twelve-week challenge as part of her "Crush Your Comfort Zone" program.
Hannah, whose worst nightmare is making small talk with strangers, is challenged to go on twelve first dates. Libby, who once claimed to have period cramps for four weeks straight to get out of gym class, is challenged to compete in an obstacle course race. The challenges begin with Hannah helping Libby train and Libby managing the dating app on her sister's behalf. They're both making good progress-until Hannah's first love rolls into town, and Libby accidentally falls for a guy she's supposed to be setting up with her sister.
Things get even more complicated when secrets come to light, making the sisters question the one relationship they've always counted on- each other. With their company's future on the line, they can't afford to fail. But in trying to make a comeback to honor their grandmother, are they pushing themselves down the wrong path?
Includes readers guide.
"Two sisters fight for their legacy while breaking out of their comfort zones in this new women's fiction novel by Ali Brady, author of The Beach Trap. Sisters Hannah and Libby need to make a big change. The PR agency they inherited from their grandmother-her pride and joy, her legacy-is failing, and clients are leaving left and right. They're about to lose hope until in walks Big Betty, a well-known self-help guru of the famed Ted Talk "Crushing the Comfort Zone." Betty is looking for a new PR agency, but there is a catch: whoever works for her has to follow her plan. She wants to see Hannah and Libby crush their own comfort zones, so they take her Enneagram-type quiz to reveal their challenges: analytical and introverted Hannah must go on twelve dates with twelve different men, while outgoing and creative Libby, who is not athletic by any means, must complete a rigorous obstacle course. They're both happy with the progress they're making-Hannah helps Libby train and Libby manages Hannah's dating app account and sets her up on dates. But everything gets derailed when Hannah's ex Josh rolls into town. Hannah knows she should keep her distance, but she still gravitates toward him. Libby, too, is distracted when she connects with a guy on the dating app, but the problem is he thinks she's Hannah-Hannah, who is much slimmer and more beautiful than Libby-which complicates everything. With their company's future at stake, they can't afford to fail their challenges, but in crushing their comfort zones, are they pushing themselves toward the wrong path?"-- Provided by publisher.
