I have been going to the gym three days, doing a group workout that’s pretty intense. I am feeling it. Things hurt on my body. Like… hurt hurt. UGH! But I refuse to give up. I figure it is just my body getting used to being worked so hard. I used to workout all the time, and I don’t remember hurting this much. I bet I just forgot. Today is a gym day and I am going over my list of pains. This morning it is my right heel, left shoulder, and right knee. My method to relieve the pain is to shake it off. Just keep shaking until it stops hurting or a new pain pops up and I am distracted. I have been shaking my limbs for 5 minutes. Might take twenty minutes. Shaky Shaky

Furrier Than Thou
When Grandma Muffin announced she’d found religion, and started recruiting followers for her new church, I just figured it was par for the course. After all, Gran has always had an eccentric streak. But when Harriet decided to follow in Gran’s footsteps and teach us all about the meaning of life, it got my attention. And so it happened that the whole family headed downtown one night to attend their first Soul Science gathering, meeting Masters Omar and Sharif, the church’s charismatic leaders.
Tex, meanwhile, was facing some problems of his own. A handsome young doctor had moved in across the street and had set up his office, and Tex’s patients were changing doctors in droves, leaving Odelia’s dad close to despair. There was something very peculiar about this new doctor, though, and it wasn’t just that everyone was so crazy about him.
Soon we were all searching for the meaning of life and happiness, the location of our souls, and how to make this world a better place. And so when tragedy struck, it’s safe to say we were ill-prepared. I like to think that the events that unfolded made us all more spiritual, though. They certainly forced us to dig deep and look for our inner sleuths!

Izzy Sterling survived a traumatic kidnapping, but her resulting anxiety forces her to shut herself off from the world. At her therapists urging, she faces her fears and volunteers at Crossroads Mountain Retreat — a soon-to-be place of healing for law enforcement and veterans and the very place she was held captive. When evidence is found that the sex-traffickers who abducted her have returned, she’s thrown right back into a past she’s tried so hard to forget.
Fresh out of the police academy, Beau Davis is ready to prove himself as an officer, but more than anything, longs to find the person responsible for hurting Izzy.

When someone comes after Izzy, it’s clear she’s a connection to the criminals they want to silence. Beau’s vow to keep her safe gives her a strength she thought she’d lost. When the nightmare she’s already survived once becomes her new reality, Izzy must fight for the life she wants. A life with Beau by her side.
