“Smart, raw, and irresistibly candid.”—Emily Giffin, New York Times Best-Selling Author of Something Borrowed

A darkly hilarious novel about toxic relationship recovery, emotional sobriety, and becoming your own soulmate.

Roxie thought hitting bottom was the worst day of her life.

Turns out, the real nightmare starts when the chaos stops—because now she has to deal with the one person she’s been avoiding for decades: herself.

She survived the chaos. Now she has to survive herself.

In Becoming My Own F-ing Soulmate, Roxie is learning to live without the toxic relationships that once functioned like emotional caffeine. No more disaster men. No more intensity disguised as chemistry. Now it’s just her, the quiet, and her recovery tribe: CoolGirl fighting charm addiction, GlamGirl rebuilding a life she torched twice, TattooGirl hanging on by a thread, Alice insisting she’s “fine,” and Dr. Kath dismantling denial one uncomfortable truth at a time.

With no drama left to hide behind, every unresolved wound comes roaring to the surface. Dating turns into a full-contact sport of ghosters, love-bombers, self-proclaimed spiritual gurus, and one man who brings his emotional support tarot deck. And when “Mr. Handsome” arrives—stable, grounded, and emotionally available—Roxie spirals into the most uncomfortable territory of all: real intimacy.

She’s the one she keeps abandoning.

Darkly hilarious, brutally honest, and painfully real, Becoming My Own F-ing Soulmate is a novel about surviving your own patterns, letting people see you as you are, and choosing yourself—even when it feels wildly unfamiliar.
