Rock bottom wasn't on Josie Hale's vision board...but it sure knows her name.

Newly divorced, unexpectedly pregnant with her ex-husband's baby, and flat broke, Josie returns to her Ohio hometown with nothing but a half-burned journal and a craving for deep-fried comfort. But when she bumps into two childhood friends, they offer her more than a place to crash—they offer a lifeline.

As Josie rebuilds from the rubble, she finds herself at the center of an unconventional household filled with loyalty, laughter...and maybe even love. What starts as survival turns into a journey of second chances, self-worth, and the families we choose when life doesn't go as planned.

Brimming with heart, wit, and characters who feel like lifelong friends, The Unplanned Life of Josie Hale is the perfect blend of feel-good women's fiction and second-chance romance. If you're craving a laugh-out-loud, emotionally honest escape about starting over, Josie's story is exactly what you've been waiting for.

"Eding infuses her playful story with heart and teasing goodwill." —Publishers Weekly
