I don't want to believe that a marriage like theirs can't be saved. I don't want to think about what that might mean for my own.
When Felix Mays starts teaching cello to a young child actor, he thinks he's taking on an easy side job while Jenna recovers from having their new baby. What he gets instead is Axel Dane—a spoiled, ten-year-old prima donna who won't lift a finger without a massive dressing room and a steady supply of organic quinoa. When Felix calls in Hollywood agent Josh Rios to help him wrangle Axel, he hopes he'll be able to get a handle on his increasingly hectic life.
But just as Josh and Felix form an improbable friendship, things go from hectic to out of control. Despite how excited she was to be mom to a newborn again, Jenna's struggling emotionally and Felix is at a loss to help her. Meanwhile, Josh and Anna-Marie are dealing with infertility treatments and have marital issues of their own—and that's before a baby rattlesnake gets loose in their house.
Felix and Josh may be unlikely friends, but as they navigate new babies, entitled child stars, missing rattlesnakes, and mental breakdowns, they have one thing in common:
They're going to do whatever it takes to save their marriages and earn their ultimate happily ever after.
You are the Story is a direct sequel to The Girlfriend Stage and Everything We Are. We recommend you read those two first, as You are the Story continues the stories of Felix and Jenna, as well as Anna-Marie and Josh. You are the Story contains R-rated sexual content, swearing, and references to partying and drug use. It has no cliffhanger, and a happily ever after for both couples.
