Summary

Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Maria Semple, a slice-of-life comedy about mothers and daughters, told through emails, texts, and journal entries. Hi, my name is Crystal. I'm 25, and I've got a great fiance, a respectable job, and a decent apartment. Or at least I did, until a few weeks ago. Technically, I'm single, unemployed, and living with my overbearing mother. But it's only temporary. I'm just crashing here for a couple of months while I work on my novel, but I never seem to have any time to write. My mother is always asking for help with chores, dragging me off to parties she doesn't want to go to, or making me sell her overpriced marshmallows. But I've got a plan. My sister works for a company that's designing smart companions. I'm going to order one to be the perfect boyfriend for my mom. He'll be handsome and flattering and good with marshmallows. And then I can go back to living my life. I just have to make sure she doesn't get too attached. He'll only be on loan for a few weeks. It's not like she's going to fall in love with him or anything, right?
