Jaydee Graham had a golden, idyllic childhood-the youngest child, adored by her parents, her future unlimited. Then a business deal gone wrong plunged the family into difficulties, pushing her father into an addiction that shattered her childhood. When her wild and free spirit clashed with the iron control of family and church, Jaydee went through a series of therapists and hospitals, eventually ending up in long-term residential treatment-all of which alienated her further from her family and drove her into the arms of an abusive boyfriend. Then, when all hope seemed lost, she found a surprising and miraculous source of love that became the ladder out of the hole her life had become. Endlessly surprising, startling and yet oddly hopeful, The Soul Grind tells the tale of a fierce and passionate soul grasping to make sense of a senseless world. A must-read for anyone who's survived trauma, addiction or perhaps just adolescence, this book heralds the addition of a thrilling new voice to the recovery canon.

In The Soul Grind, bestselling author Jaydee Graham traced her journey from idyllic childhood to an addiction-shattered family, residential treatment and into the arms of an abusive boyfriend. And in The Soul Grind II, Graham returns with the same fearlessness and candor to deliver an incredible sequel to that story: her journey out of abuse and addiction and into motherhood. Upon finding out she was pregnant while in the midst of an abusive relationship, Graham decided to go cold turkey and leave her alcohol and drug-fueled lifestyle behind to protect her newborn son-though she didn't expect that her healthy decisions would put her on a collision course with all the dark forces and relationships trying to hold her back. Struggling to survive and heal, Graham explains how she built her own life as a single mother while getting a Master's degree in social work and becoming a speaker and advocate for herself and others. As ever, she exposes her own hard truths of pain, fear and guilt along the way-only to transform them via hope and her redemptive love for her beloved son. Through raw reflections, heart-rending stories, letters to her infant son and awe-inspiring lessons on how to keep going, Graham fills in the gaps left in The Soul Grind with gritty new insights and details-and offers a messy and authentic roadmap out of the trenches once and for all, both for herself and others. For any women struggling to find purpose, single mothers or survivors of addiction and abuse, The Soul Grind II proves once again that Graham is an essential, rising voice in the world of recovery and self-healing.

Devil’s Beach is percolating with a hot murder case, and reporter-turned-barista Lana Lewis could be the next to get beaned in Tara Lush’s third Coffee Lover’s mystery, perfect for fans of Cleo Coyle and Lucy Burdette. Laid-off journalist Lana Lewis is thriving as the proprietor of Perkatory, a coffee shop on quirky Devil’s Beach island, Florida. She’s juggling a relationship with police chief Noah Garcia, enjoying the company of her best friend, Erica, and relishing the companionship of her golden Shih Tzu, Stanley. Only problem is her neighbor, Gus, who incessantly uses his leaf blower, disturbing everyone in the neighborhood. Lana has learned to tune it out, but Erica’s rage boils over and she confronts Gus. Then Gus is found dead, killed when his leaf blower explodes. Erica immediately becomes suspect number one. But there are plenty of other candidates as well: Gus’s soon-to-be ex-wife, Honey Bailey, who thinks she’ll be written out of his will; Mickey Dotson and Doug Beck, who were scalded financially after purchasing a pirate-themed tourist cruise business from Gus; and plenty of angry neighbors who’ve had run-ins with him. As the clock ticks down will Lana get someone to spill the beans on the killer so she can clear her friend’s name, or will Erica go to jail for a crime she didn’t commit?
