About this listen

THE MESSY YEARS is a heartfelt, humorous, and honest portrait of friendship during the painful years of adulting. It reminds us that the truest family is the one we choose.

Maeve, Hadley, and Lizzie thought they'd have it all figured out by now. But life, love, and loss have a way of rewriting even the best-laid plans. The trio were inseparable in college, and now navigating the messy years of adulthood on Boston's South Shore. Still reeling from the sudden death of her husband, Maeve is determined to rebuild—until a preppy golden boy named Pope not only swipes her promotion, but starts cracking open the heart she swore she’d sealed shut. Hadley, a Southern Belle newlywed is struggling to conceive while clinging to a vision of the perfect life that’s slipping through her fingers. And Lizzie, the glamorous, divorced, high-achieving realtor, is unraveling—still obsessing over her ex and questioning every choice that’s led her here.
