SYNOPSIS -
Kathleen is eighty years old. After a run-in with an intruder, her daughter wants her to move into a residential home. She's not having any of it. What she craves - needs - is adventure.Liza is drowning under the daily stress of family life. The last thing she needs is her mother jetting off on a wild holiday, making Liza dream of a solo break of her own.
Martha is having a quarter-life crisis. Unemployed, unloved and uninspired, she just can't get her life together. But she knows something has to change.
When Martha sees Kathleen's advert for a driver and companion to take an epic road trip across America, she decides this job might be the answer to her prayers. Travelling with a stranger? No problem. She's not the world's best driver, but it couldn't be worse than living with her parents again. And anyway, how much trouble can one eighty-year-old woman be?
As these women embark on the journey of a lifetime, they all discover it's never too late for adventure...
I've always liked Sarah Morgan's books and this one was no exception. I loved it. The Author has thrown together two of the most unlikely travelling partners ever, and made this such a fun read, and I wished I was one of their travelling companions.
The characters are extremely likeable, and well written. The storyline is also well written and descriptive and makes you feel like you are riding along with them on their journey. The descriptions of the destinations makes you feel as if you have actually been there yourself.
It is a tale of so many different emotions. There are tears, much laughter, and some annoyance along the way. This was just the book I needed to read in these current climes and put a smile on my face for quite some time. I'm even smiling as I'm writing this.
