The Karaoke Queen: And Her Year of Yes

Sometimes you get older before you actually grow up, and twenty-seven-year-old Kennedy James is about to discover just that.

Sure, she has a fiance and a future, but she realizes (just in time) that it isn't quite the future she wants-much to her down-home Arkansan family's chagrin.

Stifled by the conventions of Southern society, the expectations of older generations, and the everyday struggles of being a responsible adult and professional woman, Kennedy is in desperate need of a change.

She ditches the ring and starts over closer to home. With the help of a lively best friend, a new puppy, and a few nights with too much alcohol (OK, maybe more than a few), her decision to embark on a "Year of Yes" drives her closer and closer to her true self.
