Blowing Bubbles
Jenn and Sean have always known how to find each other.
They can turn a stupid joke into silent, breathless laughter. They can argue about prime numbers for hours, rescue cats together, build a home, survive illness, and still make the rest of the world disappear when they're happy.
But love has become harder to recognize inside the life they've built.
Sean wants freedom-from rules, expectations, sobriety, questions, and the feeling that every choice requires an explanation. Jenn wants safety-the ordinary kind that comes from knowing your husband will come home, answer the phone, and care what his choices do to you.
As their marriage fractures between tenderness and resentment, Jenn does what she has always done: studies every angle, understands every explanation, and tries harder. Even her own gambling addiction once offered a strange escape-a dissociative rush of chance and connection when the marriage itself felt increasingly far away.
Now the question is no longer whether they love each other.
It's whether love can tell either of them what to do next.
Blowing Bubbles is an intimate, darkly funny novel about marriage, addiction, autonomy, attachment, and the terrifying freedom of choosing a life before certainty arrives.
