Synopsis
Patricia is a PPP, Perpetual People Pleaser, and it's getting old. She just wants to feel seen and appreciated by those around her, but no matter how much she does for other people, it feels too often as though they look right past her. Her job may be at risk, too. Her days are taken up by other people and their needs, so why is she lonely?
Her husband, Jerry, chooses that moment to take her on a rare vacation to a sleepy-looking little town on the California coast, and surprise! He's bringing his mother, Evie, who has never seemed to like Patricia much, and Evie's dachshund, Midge. Once Patricia becomes famous, accidentally, navigating her new-found fame makes her consider if she really is the person she's been presenting to the world.
R(A)TS is a feel-good beach read with found family, dogs, food, friends, music, and humor. Welcome to the world of Barbados, CA!
