Blurb:
Natalie lives a traditional lifestyle – and her followers are sick with envy. Her charming farmhouse on her working ranch is artfully cluttered, her husband is a handsome cowboy, her homemade sourdough boules are each more beautiful than the last. So what if there are nannies and producers and industrial-grade ovens behind the scenes? What her followers don’t know won’t hurt them.
Then, one morning, Natalie wakes up in a strange, horrible version of reality. Her home, her husband, her children—they’re all familiar, but something’s off. Is this a hoax? A reality show? A test from God? Natalie knows just two things for sure: this isn’t her perfect life, and she must escape, by any means possible.

Religious Themes: The FMC had a religious upbringing (no specific denomination), attends church on Sundays and attempts to put on a facade of a religious homemaker. However, the whole premise of the book is a satirical look at tradwife influencers and implying that they are not all that perfect and holy as they seem. As such, this is a sort of mockery of God and religion itself throughout the novel.
