COMING FEBRUARY 2027

Thank you!

We'll send you the first chapter in the coming weeks, once someone with a little more attention to detail than Billy has finished the final edits.

Their, er, there, um, they're working on it now.

Thanks for your patience. We think you'll find it worth the wait!

Chaos has a front office.

Danny Mercer planned a rebuilding year. But what he got was a full rotation of professional and personal disasters—and a hospital wristband.

 

The season before, he was leading a franchise inside a bumbling pro women’s sports league: the man smoothing over an owner’s good intentions, a celebrity figurehead’s entitlement, and a board that mistook vanity for expertise. He documented everything, escalated nothing, and believed that being useful was the same as being alive.              

 

And then came Haley: twenty-seven, his first hire, and a tether.

 

A workplace comedy, a sticky situationship, and a reckoning, Only for You, Babe is about the people who keep everyone else’s chaos contained—and what it costs when their own gets out.
