Claire Knows Best
Book Two in the Claire Everett Series
Claire Everett thought her life was finally on the right track. She’s connecting with her four kids and getting along with her ex-husband and his pregnant wife. Now attending church regularly and dating Greg, the cute widower two doors down, Claire’s world should be in order. So how come life has suddenly become such a juggling act?
A tornado rips through her roof, forcing a move for Claire and the kids. Greg has suddenly decided on a new career and Claire’s not happy with his choice. Adding confusion to an already crazy situation, Van, the local contractor, is suddenly paying her quite a bit of attention; her daughter’s rebellion is creating big challenges; and her writing career is cooling off instead of heating up. So when panic attacks threaten to make her a prisoner in her own home, she breaks down and hires a life coach to help her sort it all out. But is a life coach the answer?
Can Claire finally let go and admit that it is God who is directing her steps, or will she try to create her own destiny and insist that Claire Knows Best?
