Synopsis: Love. Betrayal. Forgiveness. Redemption. And Fabric Softener.
Lucy Madison’s life is spinning out of control. After her grandfather crashes his motorcycle for the last time, this frustrated artist is left picking up the pieces (not to mention holding the ashes). But fulfilling his dying wish of befriending his pregnant girlfriend turns out to be even less fun than she expected. Add to that the return of her, uh, unstable brother, the tyranny of her nasty roommate, and the fact that boyfriend number
whatever, has turned out to be Mr. Not in This Lifetime, and Lucy knows it’s time to switch cycles.
Good thing Grandpa left her his launderette. It’s the perfect place to sort through her mess, focus on her art and start fresh. Isn’t it?
