Book Synopsis'Oh, you're not crazy, Denise. I think this is probably the sanest you've ever been...'
Two women. An open road. The trip of a lifetime.
Thea is confident, sorted, determined to have fun, but there are sorrows beneath the surface of her life.
Denise is struggling under the weight of her many commitments and in desperate need of some excitement.
When these polar opposites meet, and unexpectedly become friends, they realise they're both looking to escape.
So begins a road trip that leads them far from home and yet closer to their true selves.
But they can't outrun their pasts forever and when things start to become complicated, both women have an important decision to make. Do they give up or keep going? Turn around or drive on?
