Description
What begins as a near-midlife crisis transforms into a journey of love and self-acceptance in this sharp, beautifully layered, and funny debut romance from screenwriter and director Laura Chinn.

At thirty-eight years old, Rhea Darby has never been more single in her life. With her best friends all married and having kids, her social calendar is filled with baby showers and birthday parties, petting zoos and bouncy castles. However, she'd much rather be having hot sex with "the one" and getting closer to the perfect life she always envisioned. After being told that her fertility might plummet when she turns thirty-nine, and always having wanted kids of her own, Rhea decides that drastic times call for drastic measures. She has less than a year to find the right guy, or she'll have to rethink her meticulously crafted vision board of the future.

Apparently, manifestation really works, because she soon meets Danny, a gorgeous gardener who is perfect for her--until Danny reveals he is absolutely morally opposed to having kids. Still, the connection between them is too strong to resist, even as their differences threaten to tear them apart. Rhea realizes she can't let go of Danny, but is she willing to sacrifice her dreams to keep him?

Counting the Days is an insightful and sexy novel in which the complexities of love and modern womanhood are met with relatable humor and self-acceptance.
