If You'd Just Listened To Me In The First Place

Beschreibung

"Nagging just sounds so negative, and I am not a negative person. Truth is, I'm the kind of person you'd ask for directions if you were lost, or tell your life story to while waiting in line at the grocery store, which has happened on more than one occasion, believe me."
 
Sure, Ella Boudreaux is great at nagging--in fact, she's the best---but where has it gotten her? Nowhere, that's where.
 
She can't hold onto a job or find her true calling, but she knows it's out there. Could a handsome stranger help her find her destiny?
 
Or maybe he is her destiny...
