The Smoking Inn: The Chronicles of Diana Attestesso (Unabridged‪)‬

Heroically triumphing over her abusive ex who abducted their daughter, Luna, Diana Atestesso has to rise from the ashes. What more unlikely way to do that than to team up with her lost love, Finn, to build a bar named Sacred Hearts that unexpectedly becomes a haven for “freaks” of all kinds - a gonzo journalist, a drag-queen diva, a lesbian musical virtuoso, and Diana’s mentor, Selene, who embarks on an unexpected same-sex relationship in her twilight years?

But not everyone joins the celebration. Hard-shell religious power-broker, Arden Pulsifer, and fanatic zealot, Archibald Jack, seek to tear down Diana’s dreams even as she bursts her shell to be the fiery warrior she always meant to be. This battle will require all her wits, ingenuity, and courage to keep her sacred heart from turning to ash.

The Smoking Inn is the riveting follow-up to the gripping thriller The Fire Golem, expanding on the journey of Diana, Finn, Luna, Selene, and a host of new characters to build meaning in a world of alternating conflict and redemption. Welcome to the The Smoking Inn, a place your heart will gladly never leave.
