She writes romance suspense novels for a living. She divorced her ex-husband, <a data-internal-link data-link-type="Character" href="https://www.supersummary.com/finlay-donovan-is-killing-it/major-character-analysis/#401887">Steven Donovan</a>, after discovering he was sleeping with their real estate agent, <a data-internal-link data-link-type="Character" href="https://www.supersummary.com/finlay-donovan-is-killing-it/major-character-analysis/#401888">Theresa Hall</a>. Finn is running late for a brunch meeting with her agent where they are to discuss Finn’s overdue manuscript. As Finn tries to contact <a data-internal-link data-link-type="Character" href="https://www.supersummary.com/finlay-donovan-is-killing-it/major-character-analysis/#401886">Veronica “Vero” Ruiz</a>, the nanny who has not turned up yet, she struggles to attend to Delia, who has given herself a haircut, and Zach, who is covered in maple syrup. Finn wipes the scratch from the scissors on Delia’s head with a burp rag even as her call to Vero goes unanswered yet again. Delia asks Finn to call “Aunt Amy,” even as Finn explains she doesn’t have an aunt by that name. Desperate, Finn finally calls Steven, who reveals he let Vero go as he doesn’t think Finn, who works from home, needs a full-time sitter. He refuses to keep bailing Finn out; she is late on multiple payments, including her mortgage, which Finn points out is the rent she is paying him after he moved out.
