Brianna Soot is a master of reinvention—an ex-church girl turned corporate project manager, raised on Midwest chaos and Catholic guilt, now just trying to keep her anxiety and childhood trauma from burning down her life. She’s spent years spinning half-truths to survive in a world that never made space for girls like her—too loud, too broken, too much. But when a buried lie comes back to threaten the fragile life she’s built with Robert—the boy who once taught her to drive, loved her through breakdowns, and stood between her and generational ruin—Bree is forced to confront what happens when your story doesn’t match your scars. Told with biting humor and brutal honesty, Through (dis)Honest Eyes is a dark romantic comedy for every woman who has ever been called “dramatic” for feeling deeply, or “difficult” for wanting more. This debut novel explores what it means to choose love while unlearning survival, and how healing isn’t a straight line—it’s a series of bad decisions, parking lot meltdowns, and therapy sessions you almost cancel. Set against the backdrop of family dysfunction, workplace betrayals, hospice goodbyes, and emotionally messy Midwest holidays, Bree’s journey isn’t just about finding her voice—it’s about deciding who gets to hear it. Perfect for fans of Fleabag, The Bell Jar, and anyone who’s ever weaponized their sense of humor to survive, this is not a story of redemption—it’s a story of reclamation. ⸻ 📅 Publishing widely on October 7 as an eBook 🖋️ Currently available in its raw, unprofessionally edited form for early reviewers 📦 Support the print run through the Kickstarter, live until July 1
