Bestselling author Kris Radish returns with her poignant and transformative new novel Tuesday Night Miracles. From road rage to physical violence, from Amanda Knox to Casey Anthony, arrests for serious crimes committed by women are in the spotlight more than ever, yet you don't have to be on the nightly news to experience the negative effects of anger. Every day women face pressures, from work to family to female friendships, that can cause disproportionate levels of anger. In this uplifting story, five unique women are united by an anger-management class, navigating personal minefields and exploring the healing power of self-reflection and the bonds that it can create.
     Free-spirited psychologist Dr. Olivia Bayer suspects she'll need a miracle to help the four wildly different women in her anger management class. Grace, Jane, Kit, and Leah aren't typial participants in a court-ordered anger-management program-they're ordinary women who are motivated by family and careers and people they love. But when the pressures of their daily lives cause each of them to snap, Dr. Bayer must use an unconventional plan to steer them back on the right track. The class goes everywhere from a bowling alley to a shooting range, and 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.
     Full of humor, heartache and ultimate happiness, Tuesday Night Miracles will resonate with women everywhere.
