I was very pleased to be chosen as an advanced reader for this newest Kerry Lonsdale book. I started reading the story as soon as I downloaded it from NetGalley. I was very willing to take a 'side trip' for a few days.
I travelled along with the main characters Joy and Dylan as they tackled those relatable issues that created unhappiness in their life. Unfortunately, I never developed a like for the main character Joy, which is why I only gave 4 stars. I really need to be drawn to all the characters in some way to give 5. I was able to still be interested in reading because I really liked Dylan and the road trip across the country.
Kerry's writing about the side trips that the pair took drew me in. I laughed at times, I was mad and shaking my head other times, I had real tears at other times. I even found myself envious of the road trip. I love road trips!
As I was nearing the end of the book, I thought that I had it all figured out but the story started to change. I don't think I have ever read a book that had this kind of plot twist! It had me saying 'wow' out loud quite a few times! I was so sorry to see it end!

I am already looking forward to reading what Kerry has in store for us next!
