Thelma and Louise for The Empty Nest generation! Get ready for the trip of a lifetime in this endearing new novel from the author of Second Chance.

Ever fancied escaping your normal life? Then join three friends as they take the road trip of a lifetime and pick up a few strays along the way …

For best friends C.C. Byrd, Meg Bartholomew and Shelly Kostens, middle age is feeling awkwardly familiar: fluctuating hormones, heartbreak and romance and believing no one understands you.

CC must cope with widowhood after the sudden death of her husband while Meg rues the day she ever met hers after he ditches her for a younger model. Even the ever-confident Shelly is facing money worries.

In a bid to forget their problems, the three woman head south to fix up and sell C.C.'s newly-inherited childhood house.

Meeting unsuitable men, stray dogs and a few home truths along the way, the women re-discover their own identities and their friendship and learn that love – in all its forms – can make any address a home.

Thelma and Louise for the young at heart, this heart-warming and captivating tale will delight fans of Maeve Binchy, Cathy Kelly and Marley & Me.
