Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Howerton writes unflinchingly about what it means to be raising children in today’s world and how to liberate ourselves from the myth of perfect motherhood.”—Glennon Doyle, author of Untamed and Love Warrior, founder of Together Rising In this smart and subversively funny memoir, Kristen Howerton navigates the emotional and sometimes messy waters of motherhood and challenges the idea that there’s a “right” way to raise kids. Recounting her successes, trials, mishaps, and hard-won wisdom, this mother of four advocates for letting go of the expectations, the guilt, and the endless race to be the perfect parent to the perfect child in the perfect family. This book is for ● the parent who loves their kids like crazy but feels like parenting is making them crazy, too ● the parent who said “I will never . . .” and now they have ● the parent who looks like they have it all together but feels like a hot mess on the inside ● the parent who looks like a hot mess on the outside, too ● the parent who asks Am I good enough? Doing enough? Doing it right? What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with these children? Are they eighteen yet? With her signature blend of vulnerability, sarcasm, and insight, Howerton shares her unexpected journey from infertility to adoption to pregnancy to divorce to dealing with the shock and awe of raising teens. As a mom of a multiracial family and as a marriage and family therapist, she tackles the thorny issues parents face today, like hard conversations about racism, disciplining other people’s kids, the reality of Dad Privilege, and (never) attaining that elusive work/life balance. Rage Against the Minivan is a permission slip to let it go and allow yourself to be a “good enough” parent, focused on raising happy, kind, loving humans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PROLOGUE Kristen Bedford survived the suicide of her father, the death of her husband, and several attempts on her own life. But, could she survive falling for the rakish Roman DuValiere? *** After the death of her husband, Kristen craves the peace of her hometown, Blood Gully, Louisiana. But peace was the last thing she found. Meeting her as Kristen Bedford, Roman DuValiere is unaware that the honey-colored beauty is the wife of his family's long-time nemesis, Duncan Steele, and the stepmother of the man he suspects of killing his wife, Daisy, a decade ago. Discovering who she really was gave Roman every reason to do everything in his power to destroy her. But her striking resemblance to his dead wife stirs emotions he can't resist, especially when she finds herself in danger from the very man who may have gotten away with murdering Daisy. Unbeknownst to her, Kristen's inheritance from her late husband landed her smack dab in the middle of a politically charged fight between the DuValieres and the Steeles, two of the most powerful families in the oil-rich parish of Blood Gully. She was practically the sole heir to the Steele fortune, which gave her a deciding hand in the proposed pipeline coming to the bayou – a pipeline Roman had vowed to die to stop if he had to. With millions at stake and danger slithering around every corner, Kristen has no choice but to turn to the one known as 'The Emperor' for protection: Roman DuValiere, one of the infamous brothers of Blood Gully. Kristen dared not trust him, but did she really have a choice? Could she afford to trust him with her life without risking her heart?
