Write from the Heart: A Novel
Samantha’s unsettled soul desires more out of life. It’s not until some self-exploration with her quirky therapist--who encourages her to delve through her old journals--when Samantha realizes her repeated and poor patterns of behavior. Determined to fix her career aspirations and her love life, Samantha starts writing in a “positive journal” where she only pens positive thoughts and gratitude entries. When Samantha meets Craig—another writer—at a coffee shop, she’s not ready for love. Will she find love over lattes as she pens her first novel? Will positive journal writing and a new puppy—thanks to her best friend, Amanda—be enough to turn the tides of Samantha’s life? This Book 1 in the Journals from the Heart series speaks to the powerful theme of journal writing, believing in getting a second chance at love, and following your passion. Write from the Heart is a heart-centered piece of women’s literature. Buy Write from the Heart , Book 1 in the Journals from the Heart series, today!
