Two best friends jump-start their lives in a summer that will change them foreverβ¦
Single mom Ellen Fox couldnβt be more contentβuntil she overhears her son saying he canβt go to his dream college because she needs him too much. If she wants him to live his best life, she has to convince him sheβs living hers.
So Unity Leandre, her best friend since forever, creates a list of challenges to push Ellen out of her comfort zone. Unity will complete the list, too, but not because she needs to change. Whatβs wrong with a thirtysomething widow still sleeping in her late husbandβs childhood bed?
The Friendship List begins as a way to make others believe theyβre just fine. But somewhere between βwear three-inch heelsβ and βhave sex with a gorgeous guy,β Ellen and Unity discover that life is meant to be lived with joy and abandon, in a story filled with humor, heartache and regrettable tattoos.
