Hungry Ghosts by Roxanne Reaver

Lesbian Buddha In Hollywood is the story of one woman's 20 year journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. During this rite of passage, she discovers how to turn the pain of childhood sexual and emotional abuse into fuel for her own spiritual transformation. The journey begins in Part One: Hungry Ghosts, as we enter the mind of Roxanne at 24 when she is unaware of any childhood abuse. Her marriage recently failed; her screenwriting career has stalled; and, now as she commiserates with friends in an after-hours coffee house, she hears a deep Primal Voice inside her head commanding her to ask a waitress out on a date. Not quite the burning bush that Moses got but equally as effective. Sex and spirituality merge as our protagonist moves forward, skeptical of this inner voice but willing to follow its lead as it draws her into her inner world where she will ultimately discover and conquer her worst nightmares.
