Summary
In this sharply funny solo debut, an aspiring lawyer is forced to work alongside the opposing counsel in her best friend&’s divorce case, which leads to the biggest irreconcilable difference of all: love.Beatrice Nilsson is what some might call &“feisty&”… (those who love her) and others &“combative&” (those who don&’t). But no matter what you call her, she&’s a good lawyer and an even better friend. So when the marriage of her two closest pals ends in divorce, Bea picks a side and storms the office of attorney Nathan Asher to tell him exactly what he can do with his alimony petition. Unfortunately, what should end with a few choice words soon spirals into uncharted territory when Nate shows up at her NYU Law office a few days later as a newly-minted adjunct professor—and her new colleague. Bea still hates Nathan, of course. But between weekly meetings and networking events, walks around Washington Square Park and late-night pizza, that hate begins to feel a lot like something else. And as uncomfortable truths emerge about the divorce that started it all, she might have to choose between her friends&’ happily ever after and her own for the very first time.
