A New Normal Life

Renee Masters didn't plan to be single in her forties—
much less starting over with a dog she never meant to adopt,
a run club she never intended to join,
and a series of first dates she never wanted to go on.

After a quiet courthouse ending to her twenty-plus-year marriage,
Renee is determined to figure out who she is without the roles she's always played:
wife, mother, caretaker.
With sharp wit, a meddling but devoted circle of friends,
and the occasional questionable life choice,
she navigates the messy, funny, and unexpectedly hopeful terrain of post-divorce life.

As new friendships form, old wounds begin to heal,
and one man quietly refuses to fit into her "friend zone,"
Renee starts to realize that normal isn't gone—
it's just been rewritten.
And maybe, just maybe,
this new chapter could be her best yet.

A New Normal Life is a warm, laugh-out-loud journey about heartbreak,
healing,
and the unpredictable ways love finds you
when you're finally ready.
