About Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail
Astrid Parker has built her life around perfection: flawless designs, careful plans, and the kind of success that might finally earn her mother’s approval. After a broken engagement leaves her determined to focus on her career, the chance to redesign the Everwood Inn for a popular home-renovation show feels like exactly the opportunity she needs. There is only one problem: Jordan Everwood. As the inn’s lead carpenter and Pru Everwood’s granddaughter, Jordan is determined to protect the building’s history from Astrid’s sleek modern vision. Their creative clashes soon become must-see television, especially when the producers encourage them to lean into the tension. But somewhere between sabotage, sparks, and stubborn arguments over what the inn should become, Astrid begins to wonder whether the life she has been trying so hard to perfect is the one she truly wants. Warm, witty, and emotionally satisfying, Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail is a rivals-to-lovers queer romcom about renovation, reinvention, found family, and learning to define success on your own terms.
