Emily Harlow is a professional organizer who helps people declutter their lives; sheโs married to man who canโt drive past a yard sale without stopping. Heโs filled their basement, attic, and garage with his finds.
Like other professionals who make a living decluttering peoplesโ lives, Emily has devised a set of ironclad rules. When working with couples, she makes clear that the client is only allowed to declutter his or her own stuff. That stipulation has kept Emilyโs own marriage together these past few years. Sheโd love nothing better than to toss out all her husbandโs crap. He says heโs a collector. Emily knows betterโheโs a hoarder. The larger his โcollectionโ becomes, the deeper the distance grows between Emily and the man she married.
Luckily, Emilyโs got two new clients to distract herself: an elderly widow whose husband left behind a storage unit she didnโt know existed, and a young wife whose husband wonโt allow her stuff into their house. Emilyโs initial meeting with the young wife takes a detour when, after too much wine, the women end up fantasizing about how much more pleasant life would be without their collecting spouses.
But the next day Emily finds herself in a mess that might be too big for her to clean up. Careful what you wish for, the old adage says . . . now Emily might lose her freedom, her marriage . . . and possibly her life.
