Sanjana Satyananda is trying to recover her life. It’ s been a year since she walked out on her husband, a struggling actor named Killian, at a commune in India, after a disagreement about whether to have children. Now, Sanjana is struggling to resurrect her busted anthropology dissertation and crashing at her annoyingly perfect sister’ s while her well-adjusted peers obsess over marriages, mortgages, and motherhood. Sanjana needs to move forward— and finalize her divorce, ASAP.

There’ s just one problem: Killian is missing. As Sanjana tries to track him down, she’ s bombarded with unnerving calls from women seeking her advice on pregnancy and fertility. Soon, Sanjana comes face to face with what her life might have been if she’ d chosen parenthood. And the road not taken turns out to be wilder, stranger, and more tempting than she imagined.
