A beautiful story that will have you laughing one moment and crying the next, so grab wine, chocolate, and a tissue and settle in.

Madeline O’Shea is a nationally known life coach and columnist. She confidently tells women exactly how to improve their lives and create change. Her advice is often unconventional, hilarious, and outrageous – and it works.

In terms of her own life? She’s a total mess.

“I am two people. The public Madeline O’Shea, flamboyant and confident, who inspires people, mostly those with vaginas, to grab life, shake it around, and sling it in a new direction, and the other me who cowers, likes to be alone with my seriously unbalanced mind, doesn’t trust, and battles near-crippling fear and sadness…

I am a lie. I have no more business advising people what to do with their lives, or their relationships, than I have advising NASA how to build a spaceship to Alien Monster Land.”

As she counsels quirky clients, the long-held secrets in Madeline’s life are about to be exposed, which she had always dreaded, as her past catches up with her.

Yet she is not the only one with secrets. Madeline is stunned to find out that her beloved grandparents have their own, all centered around an old, battered violin. Madeline will soon discover the mind-numbing truth about her entire family, and herself, a story that stretches from France to Cape Cod to a pink beauty parlor to a lavender farm in Oregon.

Within that truth she’ll finally find out who Madeline O’Shea really is.
