She's got a problem.
Billie is over her soul-sucking corporate job, her terrible boyfriend, and ready for a life that doesn’t make her want to scream into a throw pillow. The trouble is, she has no idea how to escape. Then, a new friend—Alana—breezes into her life: glamorous, fearless, and the type of person who makes Billie feel like reinvention might be possible. There’s just one tiny complication: Billie has a crush on Alana’s boyfriend, Rodrigo. Even worse? Billie doesn't know it yet, but Alana is an international arms dealer.
He’s got the wrong woman.
Rodrigo has a habit of projecting his dream girl onto women who are wrong for him. Exhibit A: Alana—his volatile girlfriend who also happens to be an arms dealer. Now, Rodrigo wants out of the relationship, preferably with all vital organs intact. But breaking up is hard to do when your soon-to-be ex is armed, unstable, and loves revenge. It doesn't help that Rodrigo is attracted to Alana's newest friend, Billie.
They’ve got forced proximity.
When Billie is kidnapped by Alana and taken on a glittering European disaster tour, she and Rodrigo are thrown together into sun-soaked cities, luxury hotels, getaway cars, and one dangerously inconvenient bedroom. He’s grumpy. She’s sunshine with a stress migraine. They do not trust each other. They absolutely should not want each other. Naturally, every mile makes the tension worse.
What could possibly go wrong?
Billie thought she needed to fix herself. Rodrigo thought he needed to survive his breakup. Neither planned on falling in love while running from a killer in designer heels. But somewhere between the danger, the denial, and the one-bed-level tension, they’ll have to decide what’s scarier: Alana finding out the truth, or admitting they might be exactly what the other has been looking for.
Perfect for fans of "The Lost City" and readers of Katherine Center, "She Needs Therapy" is a darkly funny, high-stakes romantic comedy packed with forbidden attraction, bad decisions, luxury hotels, getaway cars… and the kind of love that makes running for your life feel like destiny.
