“If I could only choose one word to describe Ann Lee Miller\u2019s Chasing Happy<\/i>, I would have to say \u2018Monumental\u2019. This is Christian fiction at its finest. It\u2019s edgy, gritty, and believable with absolutely no sugar coating, yet sensitive, romantic, and deeply moving. Don\u2019t dismiss it because of the \u2018hot button\u2019 topic.

Avra’s God<\/em>\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Four friends navigate college and the drama churned up by their Florida beach band to cement friendship and more. Avra wants love, but drummer Cisco\u2014self-medicating from his parents\u2019 divorce with unhealthy behaviors\u2014is a poor choice. Cisco hungers for fresh-baked cookies and the scent of family he finds at Avra\u2019s. Kallie shares her classically trained voice only with lead vocalist Jesse and fights to keep her heart safe. Jesse feeds on fame and hides more than insecurity beneath his guitar. The friends surf ego, betrayal, and ambition and head for wipeout. \u00a0But somehow, when they’re not looking, Avra\u2019s God changes them all.<\/p>\n

Kicking Eternity<\/em><\/h2>\n

Stuck in sleepy New Smyrna Beach one last summer, Raine socks away her camp pay checks, worries about her druggy brother, and ignores trouble: Cal Koomer. She\u2019s a plane ticket away from teaching orphans in Africa. Not even Cal\u2019s surfer six-pack and the chinks she spies in his rebel armor will derail her. The artist in Cal begs to paint Raine\u2019s ivory skin, high cheek bones, and internal sparklers behind her eyes. But falling for her would caterwaul him into his parents\u2019 life. No thanks. The girl was self-righteous waiting to happen. Mom served sanctimony like vegetables, three servings a day, and he had a gut full. Rec Director Drew taunts her with \u201cRainey\u201d and calls her an enabler. He is so infernally there<\/em> like a horsefly\u2014till he buzzes back to his ex. Raine’s brother tweaks. Her dream of Africa dies small deaths. Will she figure out what to fight for and what to free before it’s too late?<\/p>\n

Art of My Life<\/em><\/h2>\n

Cal walked out of jail and into a second chance at winning Aly with his grandma\u2019s beater sailboat and a reclaimed dream of sailing charters. Aly has the business smarts, strings to a startup loan, and heart he never should have broken. He\u2019s got squat. Unless you count enough original art for a monster rummage sale and an affection for weed. But he\u2019d only ever loved Aly. That had to count for something.

For anyone who\u2019s ever struggled to measure up. And failed.<\/p>\n
