Fiction by Joshilyn Jackson
Paula Vauss was born in Alabama while her sixteen-year-old mother was in juvie. Her mother Kai wanted to name her after a Hindu goddess, but nobody listened to that. As soon as Kai turned eighteen and was released, she retrieved Paula and set out on a weird itinerant lifestyle that eventually landed her in grown-up jail and sent Paula to foster care.
Now Paula is an adult and working as a divorce lawyer. She sends her mother money but hasn't spoken to her for fifteen years. But the reader knows, the past will come back...
This was a really good story with great characters. I loved it!
