Book excerpt: Broken Little Pieces is what happens when you can no longer wear the mask of perfection. It's when you finally accept that you are flawed, shattered, and unable to recognize your own face in the mirror. It's preferring the darkness because the light forces you to see the masks that have no connection to who you truly are within. It's when you have worn so many masks for so many people that you begin to lose track of which mask was shown to whom. Broken Little Pieces takes you on the journey that feels like a stripping down to the core of who you are; in order to be built up to who you should be. It's learning to pick up all of the pieces to create the mosaic of your life's dna. It's accepting your past, pain, and shame and no longer allowing it to define you. It's realizing that your are imperfectly whole with all of your broken little pieces. Allowing yourself to be brave, vulnerable, and mask free. Refusing to no longer be invisible, but loving yourself as a unique work of art. Come along on my journey as I show you how an Invisible child grew up to become an Invisible wife. A life's journey forever searching to be seen, heard, and validated. You will see how my invisibility allowed me to create masks and the illusion of perfection in every area of my life. It will help you to identify your masks and provide a path to a life that is mask free.

Book excerpt: You can't keep two people who are meant to be together apart for long... Lennon Davis doesn't believe in much, but she does believe in the security of the number five. If she flicks the bedroom light switch five times, maybe her new LA school won't suck. But that doesn't feel right, so she flicks the switch again. And again. Ten more flicks of the switch and maybe her new stepfamily will accept her. Twenty-five more flicks and maybe she won't cause any more of her loved ones to die. Fifty more and then she can finally go to sleep. Kyler Benton witnesses this pattern of lights from the safety of his tree house in the yard next door. It is only there, hidden from the unwanted stares of his peers, that Kyler can fill his notebooks with lyrics that reveal the true scars of the boy behind the oversize hoodies and caustic humor. But Kyler finds that descriptions of blond hair, sad eyes, and tapping fingers are beginning to fill the pages of his notebooks. Lennon, the lonely girl next door his father has warned him about, infiltrates his mind. Even though he has enough to deal with without Lennon's rumored tragic past in his life, Kyler can't help but want to know the truth about his new muse.

Book excerpt: "One day someone is going to hug you so tight that all of your broken pieces will stick back together." Destiny Jones is doing fine on her own, thanks. Twenty years ago, her world collapsed when her mother died and her father abandoned her to pursue an acting career in New York. Since then, she's built her life and her career in Paris, NJ. Her father's exit taught her a lesson in self-reliance that's kept her safe-and alone-until now. When her father returns, begging for a second chance, she suspects he's staging yet another performance. But then he divulges a shocking secret that turns Destiny's life upside down. Again. Will she turn him away? Or will she risk her heart for one last chance at family? A story of damaged hearts, healing, and forgiveness, Broken Pieces reveals the walls we build to protect ourselves are sometimes the very things we must break down to fully live and love.

Book excerpt: “If you liked Big Little Lies, you’ll want to crack open [Little Broken Things].” —Southern Living An unforgettable and moving novel about an affluent suburban family whose carefully constructed façade crumbles with the unexpected arrival of an endangered young girl. I have something for you. When Quinn Cruz receives that cryptic text message from her older sister Nora, she doesn’t think much of it. They haven’t seen each other in nearly a year and their relationship consists mostly of infrequent phone calls and the occasional email. But when a haunted-looking Nora shows up just hours later, a chain reaction is set into motion that will change both of their lives forever. Nora’s “something” is more shocking than Quinn could have ever imagined: a little girl, cowering and wide-eyed. Nora hands her over to Quinn with instructions to keep her safe and disappears, leaving Quinn as the unlikely caretaker of a girl introduced simply as Lucy. “Steeped in menace…a race-to-the-finish family drama” (People), Little Broken Things explores life and death, family and freedom, and the lengths one woman will go to protect the ones she loves.

Book excerpt: Are you searching for greater perspective? Have you felt discouraged or uninspired in a world of instability and uncertainty? Have you lost hope in the face of difficult circumstances? Or maybe you just want to read an exciting and unforgettable tale based on a true story that will transform and transport you?Whatever you're looking for, this is an adventure that will open your eyes, touch your heart, and deepen your beliefs. Take a journey with author, Shane Svorec, as she invites readers to see the world through the back seat of a VW bus. Across the country and through the years, colorful experiences make up her transient upbringing where her empathetic spirit and perpetual optimism become the foundation for a life of adaptability, greater understanding, and never-ending wonder. A story about a girl who refuses to be a victim of her past or a product of her circumstances, Shane searches for purpose even in pain with a determined, free spirit and shows others how to do the same. Creating a life out of overcoming the unthinkable, she dreams of a brighter future and envisions a world of possibilities as she stares out from the back seat of her family Volkswagen. The many "no-coincidence" connections she makes with others along the way, prove not only to be profound, but purposeful as well, while they unknowingly steer her onto the path she's meant to travel. These are the tales of the Broken Little Believer, the truth behind All the Pretty Painful Pieces, and the testimonies collected along the Path to Finding Purpose. Like going on a road trip with a good friend and a great playlist, this book weaves true stories into life lessons while entertaining and encouraging readers. In this book, readers will: *Discover how uncomfortable experiences can serve as opportunities for self-exploration and personal growth while creating a foundation for a healthy perspective and an attitude of gratitude. *Realize that to maintain hope, attract positivity, and fulfill one's purpose, it is necessary to implement pause, practice personal reflection, and routinely acknowledge the needs of our soul, while taking inventory of those who occupy our time and space. *Reveal a new (or greater) appreciation for their own journey as they recognize the value in painful lessons that serve to bring us closer to our purpose, and a life of peace and fulfillment. Beyond the journey, this book: *Features reasons to believe in the underdog while showcasing how false perceptions, widely held beliefs, and initial impressions are not only misleading but often wrong. *Provides a positive pathway to introduce, renew, and stretch that which we believe to be possible. *Creates a mindset of possibilities within readers as they learn to recognize blessings in disguise, further open their minds, deepen their understanding, and reach their potential in areas of their life where they've become stagnant, complacent, or resentful.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A gripping memoir about the nature of addiction and the meaning of recovery from a bold and talented literary voice. “Anyone who has ever felt broken and wished for a better life will find inspiration in Frey’s story.” —People “A great story.... You can't help but cheer his victory.” —Los Angeles Times Book Review By the time he entered a drug and alcohol treatment facility, James Frey had taken his addictions to near-deadly extremes. He had so thoroughly ravaged his body that the facility’s doctors were shocked he was still alive. The ensuing torments of detoxification and withdrawal, and the never-ending urge to use chemicals, are captured with a vitality and directness that recalls the seminal eye-opening power of William Burroughs’s Junky. But A Million Little Pieces refuses to fit any mold of drug literature. Inside the clinic, James is surrounded by patients as troubled as he is—including a judge, a mobster, a one-time world-champion boxer, and a fragile former prostitute to whom he is not allowed to speak—but their friendship and advice strikes James as stronger and truer than the clinic’s droning dogma of How to Recover. James refuses to consider himself a victim of anything but his own bad decisions, and insists on accepting sole accountability for the person he has been and the person he may become—which runs directly counter to his counselors' recipes for recovery. James has to fight to find his own way to confront the consequences of the life he has lived so far, and to determine what future, if any, he holds. It is this fight, told with the charismatic energy and power of One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest, that is at the heart of A Million Little Pieces: the fight between one young man’s will and the ever-tempting chemical trip to oblivion, the fight to survive on his own terms, for reasons close to his own heart.

Book excerpt: Perhaps the most unconventional and literally breathtaking father-son story you'll ever read, My Friend Leonard pulls you immediately and deeply into a relationship as unusual as it is inspiring. The father figure is Leonard, the high-living, recovering coke addict "West Coast Director of a large Italian-American finance firm" (read: mobster) who helped to keep James Frey clean in A Million Little Pieces. The son is, of course, James, damaged perhaps beyond repair by years of crack and alcohol addiction-and by more than a few cruel tricks of fate. James embarks on his post-rehab existence in Chicago emotionally devastated, broke, and afraid to get close to other people. But then Leonard comes back into his life, and everything changes. Leonard offers his "son" lucrative—if illegal and slightly dangerous—employment. He teaches James to enjoy life, sober, for the first time. He instructs him in the art of "living boldly," pushes him to pursue his passion for writing, and provides a watchful and supportive veil of protection under which James can get his life together. Both Leonard's and James's careers flourish…but then Leonard vanishes. When the reasons behind his mysterious absence are revealed, the book opens up in unexpected emotional ways. My Friend Leonard showcases a brilliant and energetic young writer rising to important new challenges—displaying surprising warmth, humor, and maturity—without losing his intensity. This book proves that one of the most provocative literary voices of his generation is also one of the most emphatically human.

Book excerpt: Written with clarity, tenacity, humor, and warmth, A Hundred Little Pieces on the End of the World attempts to find tolerable ethical positions in the face of barely tolerable events—and the real possibility of an intolerable future. It is a compelling, surprising, disturbing, and highly literate work of reportage and contemplation. It is both a collection of gentle-spirited wisdom and a rumination on ruin, as if distilled in equal measure from the spirits of Norman Maclean’s A River Runs Through It and Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. Through these ten essays, each further broken into ten smaller pieces, Rember examines the practical and ethical dilemmas of climate change, population, resource depletion, and mass extinction. At the same time, he never forgets those improbable connections between human beings that lead to moments of joy, empathy, and grace.

It's a unique story with layered characters I couldn't help but fall in love with." -Nyrae Dawn, author of Charade What if your life wasn't your own? Liv comes out of a coma with no memory of her past and two distinct, warring voices inside her head. Nothing, not even her reflection, seems familiar. As she stumbles through her junior year, her two minds get louder, insisting she please the popular group while simultaneously despising them. But when Liv starts hanging around with Spencer, whose own mysterious past also has him on the fringe, life feels complete for the first time in, well, as long as she can remember. Liv knows the details of the car accident that put her in the coma, but as the voices invade her dreams, and her dreams start feeling like memories, she and Spencer seek out answers. Yet the deeper they dig, the less things make sense. Can Liv rebuild the pieces of her broken past, when it means questioning not just who she is, but what she is?

Book excerpt: “A powerful story of family and connection that is just as fun as it is heartbreaking. I didn’t want the story to end.” — Jill Santopolo, New York Times bestselling author of The Light We Lost and Everything After Following her acclaimed debut novel, You and Me and Us, Alison Hammer offers a deeply moving story of family and identity. When a DNA test reveals a long-buried secret, a woman must look to the past to understand her mother and herself. When Paige Meyer gets an email from a DNA testing website announcing that her father is a man she never met, she is convinced there must be a mistake. But as she digs deeper into her mother’s past and her own feelings of being the odd child out growing up, Paige begins to question everything she thought she knew. Could this be why Paige never felt like she fit in her family, and why her mother always seemed to keep her at an arm’s length? And what does it mean for Paige’s memories of her father, a man she idolized and whose death she is still grieving? Back in 1975, Betsy Kaplan, Paige’s mom, is a straightlaced sophomore at the University of Kansas. When her sweet but boring boyfriend disappoints her, Betsy decides she wants more out of life, and is tired of playing it safe. Enter Andy Abrams, the golden boy on campus with a potentially devastating secret. After their night together has unexpected consequences, Betsy is determined to bury the truth and rebuild a stable life for her unborn child, whatever the cost. When Paige can’t get answers from her mother, she goes looking for the only other person who was there that night. The more she learns about what happened, the more she sees her unflappable, distant mother as a real person faced with an impossible choice. But will it be enough to mend their broken relationship? Told in dual timelines, Little Pieces of Me examines identity and how the way we define ourselves changes (or not) through our life experiences.

Book excerpt: The sister of “La Diva de la Banda”—legendary Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera—opens up for the first time about Jenni’s untimely death and her own triumph over abuse and addiction. Growing up as the youngest Rivera, Rosie was surrounded by unconditional love, support, and affection. There was nothing that her family wouldn’t do for her, especially her sister Jenni, who was the most important thing in the world to Rosie. With her strong will and a solid foundation, Rosie was set to conquer the world. Yet life would take a drastic turn when Rivera was scarred by sexual abuse within her family at a very young age. Living in fear and confined by painful secrets, she was plagued with constant threats, confusion, and pain. Not only was she stripped of her childhood and innocence, but she was also robbed of her confidence and self-worth. Feeling completely shattered and lost, Rivera plunged into a world of damaging habits and deep depression. For the first time ever, and with unflinching candor and courage, Rosie shares the traumatic details of her abuse and the daily struggle to live and how, through faith and the love of her family, she found life once more. Yet Rosie’s life would be severely impacted once again as the worst tragedy imaginable hit and her biggest fear came to reality—the death of her beloved sister. Equally harrowing and uplifting, Rosie’s story is a true testament to beating the odds and proves that despite the worst of times and no matter how many more challenges life has in store, it is always possible to pick up the pieces and find the strength and purpose to dream and live again.
