In this poignant and transformative novel, bestselling author Kris Radish weaves a tale of five women yearning for change-and the potential for happiness that lies within every heart. Free-spirited psychologist Dr. Olivia Bayer suspects she'll need a miracle to help the four wildly different women in her anger management class.

Kit, in her fifties, has had it with her taunting older brothers. And Leah, a young mother of two, is starting over after ending a troubled relationship. All have reached a crossroads, and Dr. Bayer has an unconventional plan to steer them on the right track. As the class gets taken everywhere from a bowling alley to a shooting range, the women's Tuesday meetings transform from tense, reluctant gatherings into richly rewarding experiments in female bonding. As Grace, Jane, Kit, and Leah open up-revealing secrets, swapping stories, and recovering long-lost dreams-old wounds begin to heal, new friendships are forged, and miracles manifest in the most surprising ways.
