A road trip can drive anyone over the edge--especially two former best friends--in bestselling author Ann Garvin's funny and poignant novel about broken bonds, messy histories, and the power of forgiveness. Widowed Samantha Arias hasn't spoken to Holly Dunfee in forever. It's for the best. Samantha prefers to avoid conflict. The blisteringly honest Holly craves it. What they still have in common puts them both back on speed dial: a mutual love for Katie, their best friend of twenty-five years, now hospitalized with cancer and needing one little errand from her old college roomies. It's simple: travel cross-country together, steal her loathsome ex-husband's VW camper, find Katie's diabetic Great Pyrenees at a Utah rescue, and drive him back home to Wisconsin. If it'll make Katie happy, no favor is too big (one hundred pounds), too daunting (two thousand miles), or too illegal (ish), even when a boho D-list celebrity hitches a ride and drives the road trip in fresh directions. Samantha and Holly are following every new turn--toward second chances, unexpected romance, and self-discovery--and finally blowing the dust off the secret that broke their friendship. On the open road, they'll try to put it back together--for themselves, and especially for the love of Katie. | Author: Ann Garvin | Publisher: Lake Union Publishing | Publication Date: May 01, 2021 | Number of Pages: 301 pages | Language: English | Binding: Paperback | ISBN-10: 1542022339 | ISBN-13: 9781542022330

Ein Roadtrip kann jeden aus der Bahn werfen - vor allem zwei ehemals beste Freundinnen - in diesem witzigen und ergreifenden Roman der Bestsellerautorin Ann Garvin über zerbrochene Bande, chaotische Geschichten und die Kraft der Vergebung.Die verwitwete Samantha Arias hat seit Ewigkeiten nicht mehr mit Holly Dunfee gesprochen. Das ist auch gut so. Samantha zieht es vor, Konflikte zu vermeiden. Die unverblümt ehrliche Holly sehnt sich danach. Was sie noch gemeinsam haben, bringt sie zurück auf die Kurzwahltaste: die gemeinsame Liebe zu Katie, ihrer besten Freundin seit fünfundzwanzig Jahren, die jetzt mit Krebs im Krankenhaus liegt und eine kleine Besorgung von ihren alten College-Kollegen braucht.Es ist ganz einfach: gemeinsam quer durchs Land fahren, den VW-Wohnwagen ihres abscheulichen Ex-Mannes stehlen, Katies diabetischen Großen Pyrenäenhund in einem Tierheim in Utah finden und ihn nach Hause nach Wisconsin bringen. Wenn es Katie glücklich macht, ist kein Gefallen zu groß (einhundert Pfund), zu entmutigend (zweitausend Meilen) oder zu illegal (ish), selbst wenn eine Boho-D-Prominente mitfährt und den Roadtrip in eine neue Richtung lenkt.Samantha und Holly folgen jeder neuen Abzweigung - hin zu zweiten Chancen, unerwarteten Romanzen und Selbstentdeckungen - und pusten endlich den Staub von dem Geheimnis, das ihre Freundschaft zerstört hat. Auf der offenen Straße werden sie versuchen, sie wieder zusammenzufügen - für sich selbst und vor allem für die Liebe zu Katie.
