Summary
Three women all in different places in their lives, thinking that they're content with the way things are.
Rumi, a widow and single mother to a five year old daughter just trying to find any sort of emotional connection with her days of fame and stardom behind her.
Zoey, a young 20-something with big dreams, doing whatever she can to live her on her own, taken far away from the place she called home.
Mira, the young daughter of a powerful family who is living her life on her terms, having the means and confidence to do so.
A mix of questionable decisions, absurd coincidences, and a few leaps of faith that might end up turning out beautifully for all three of them.

Summary
Rumi leans forward on the couch, her hair falling into her face. “Two weeks,” she murmurs, though she doesn’t sound convinced. “That’s what they’re saying.”
Mira, beside her, doesn’t flinch. Arms folded, her expression calm but sharp, she answers without looking away from the TV. “They’re never honest about the first number. It’ll be longer.”Rumi knows she’s right, but another thought presses louder in her head: Zoey.
Zoey, alone across the city in her too-small apartment, her family stuck thousands of miles away in America. Zoey, with her restless energy and big heart, the one who fills every silence with laughter or questions or that wide, blinding smile. Zoey, who Rumi loves just as surely as the woman sitting at her side.Rumi glances toward Mira, choosing her words carefully. She touches Mira’s thigh, soft and grounding. “Babe… what if Zoey stayed here?”

Summary
In hindsight, it should have been obvious. The way Rumi refused to go to the bathhouse, her bizarre relationship with Celine, this whole thing with the Saja Boys? Mira prided herself on reading people, and she felt stupid for not seeing it sooner. The pieces were all there, just waiting to be put together.
Rumi was gay.
The night after the joint signing with the Saja Boys, Mira went to confront Rumi about her ongoing weird behavior. Instead of letting hurt feelings drive the conversation, Mira took a minute to try and figure out what might be wrong. Unfortunately, she came to the completely wrong conclusion.
Misunderstandings ensue. They talk it out.
For better or worse, everything changes.

Everyone's favourite platonic soulmates learn life lessons and get into shenanigans together while figuring out that love doesn't have to be romantic.
"She’d throw herself in front of anything if it meant not having to hold her breath to try and feel his body moving against her back, giving some sign that he was still pulling oxygen into his lungs. She’d spit in the face of anything that laughed at his pain. Two weeks ago the sight of his stupid hair and stupid face filled her with something red and hot, now she thought she might die for him if it came down to it. Love was weird like that, even when it was platonic."
