      Exploring the complexities of stepmotherhood, this collection delves into a young bride's unsettling journey in a Floridian suburb. Confronted with the challenges of her husband's past and her own struggles with infertility, she navigates a world filled with distrust and surreal moments. Through vivid imagery, she grapples with loss, obsession, and the haunting remnants of her predecessor. The poems create a darkly lyrical portrait of a woman's quest for stability in a turbulent domestic landscape, capturing the emotional ripples of her experiences.
