And now sheās been rejected from an art show because her work āhas no heart.ā So when she gets another opportunity to show her paintings, Abby isnāt going to take any chances.
Which is where the list comes in.
Abby gives herself one month to do ten things, ranging from face a fear (#3) to learn a strangerās story (#5) to fall in love (#8). She knows that if she can complete the list, sheāll become the kind of artist sheās always dreamed of being.
But as the deadline approaches, Abby realizes that getting through the list isnāt as straightforward as it seems . . . and that maybeājust maybeāshe canāt change her art if she isnāt first willing to change herself.
