Bethany Hart has a secret superpower - she can see different possible futures and choose the safest path through any social situation. For decades, she's used this gift to avoid conflict and maintain a quiet, controlled life. But when she meets a handsome stranger at the grocery store, her ability malfunctions, showing her tantalizing visions of their perfect future together before disappearing completely. Now Bethany must navigate an increasingly chaotic life without her supernatural safety net. As embarrassing incidents pile up and long-buried emotions surface, she realizes her gift may have been holding her back from truly living. With help from her best friend Jenna, her surprisingly supportive ex-husband Caleb, and a mysterious spiritual guide named Fiona, Bethany learns that real power comes not from controlling outcomes, but from having the courage to embrace uncertainty. A heartwarming contemporary fantasy about learning to take risks, face fears, and open your heart to life's possibilities - even when you can't see what's coming next. "Goddess Game" is a little different than my previous books in that it is written for middle-aged women - not teens or middle-graders. The idea for it got a hold on me and I really wanted to write it. I think the story is relatable, fun, and meaningful. It is interesting how often the things I write have relevance in my life. When I was writing "Sentenced," I felt like I was making decisions in my life that were showing up as either ticket games or talent games (i.e. money-oriented or soul-oriented if you haven't read the story). As I wrote "Goddess Game", I could see my own life reflected in much of what the main character, Bethany, was going through and learning. This development in my writing experience makes me a little wary of some of my upcoming book ideas. Ha-ha! The main theme of "Goddess Game" is that avoiding struggle may seem safe, but it leads to a life that doesn't feel as satisfying as a life where you played fully and accepted losses and gains as both being wins. Loss is merely a lesson and that is a win because you gained knowledge and can use it going forward. In my own life journey, I feel like I have tried to play it safe. I find that I hesitate in some areas that are important in truly making everything I want into reality. Bethany has certainly inspired me as I followed along on her journey. Mayhap she will do the same for you. Life comes without a rulebook. But what if you had a cheat code? Bethany Hart has always peeked ahead—at conversations, at choices, at life itself. Her uncanny intuition has helped her dodge drama, heartbreak, and bad outfits. But when her foresight suddenly glitches, Bethany is thrust into a wild inner quest filled with sass-mouthed guides, cosmic curveballs, and the ultimate question: What do you really want? Part mystical misadventure, part self-help remix, Goddess Game is a playful, powerful ride into the heart of what makes us truly alive. Thirty-eight-year-old Bethany Hart has perfected the art of avoiding life's messier moments, thanks to her secret ability to see possible futures before they happen. But when she meets Marcus at the local grocery store, her gift shows her a tantalizing vision of their life together - and then vanishes completely. With her supernatural safety net gone, Bethany faces a cascade of challenges: a best friend who discovers her decades of manipulation, an ex-husband whose friendship suddenly feels complicated, and a mysterious spiritual guide who seems to know more about Bethany's power than she does. As embarrassing incidents pile up and long-suppressed emotions surface, Bethany must decide: Is the promise of true love worth the risk of genuine vulnerability? A charming contemporary fantasy about second chances, self-discovery, and learning that the most meaningful moments in life are the ones you can't predict.
