Now Marigold's starting a new school, missing her best friend like crazy, and trying to fit in all over again in the shadow of a mom who's famous for all the wrong reasons.

Now all the kids know instantly just how weird her mom is, and Marigold's worried she'll never be able to have a friendship that can survive her mother.

Roma Kulkarni is having the time of her life. She's an extremely successful, rich, famous global concierge doctor with a brand of her own and a monopoly on medicine. However, she's got an ego the size of an overinflated SUV tire. And when patients begin to complain about Roma's ego and low quality of care, there's only one thing left to do. Exile her. To an emergency department. In Las Vegas. At night. Khalil Karam is passing the vibe check. That is, until Roma Kulkarni comes along and breaks the wonderful, normal, awesome ER's team in half. Roma only believes in the sickcare system, but he wants the healthcare system. He's assigned to teach her what it means to be a doctor. Khalil hates Roma, but he'll do anything to show this headstrong Newark-born A-lister what his ER means to him. So Roma has an exile to survive. Six months in the middle of the desert. And no penthouse! But whatever. It's not like she's actually going to change her ways, no matter what anyone tells her, no matter what she encounters. Like, not at all. Right? But the emergency room is a miraculous place. Even when the outlook seems bleak, hope prevails. As for all being fair? The chances of that are very, very slim.
