Publisher's Summary

For 18 years, Jude Farraday has put her children’s needs above her own, and it shows - her twins, Mia and Zach, are bright and happy teenagers. When Lexi Baill moves into their small, close-knit community, no one is more welcoming than Jude. Lexi, a former foster child with a dark past, quickly becomes Mia’s best friend. Then Zach falls in love with Lexi and the three become inseparable.

Jude does everything to keep her kids on track for college and out of harm’s way. It has always been easy - until senior year of high school. Suddenly she is at a loss. Nothing feels safe anymore; every time Mia and Zach leave the house, she worries about them. On a hot summer’s night her worst fears are realized. One decision will change the course of their lives. In the blink of an eye, the Farraday family will be torn apart and Lexi will lose everything. In the years that follow, each must face the consequences of that single night and find a way to forget... or the courage to forgive.Vivid, universal, and emotionally complex, Night Road raises profound questions about motherhood, identity, love, and forgiveness. It is a luminous, heartbreaking novel that captures both the exquisite pain of loss and the stunning power of hope. This is Kristin Hannah at her very best, telling an unforgettable story about the longing for family, the resilience of the human heart, and the courage it takes to forgive the people we love.

Beautiful & Heart-wrenching

I don’t often cry when reading or listening to a book but this one made me cry many times.

The different voices of the characters are fine we’ll too.

Oh my heart!

This story had me completely invested in the characters. I cried, I smiled, I got angry.
A beautiful, well written narrative that had me circling the block a few times just to listen to a little bit more.
Well done Kristen Hannah. I’m a big fan.

OMG! So sad!!

Kristin Hannah, always one to pull at the heart strings. I cried multiple times in this book, I felt so much devastation for the characters. Honestly, such a sad story and a stark reminder that this could happen to any of us.

A good read...except for the last few chapters

The narrator is great and I loved the story...just up until the last 5 to 10 chapters where the mother miraculously changed her behaviour of the previous 6 years in a couple of days. The mother's behaviour was actually VERY annoying throughout the entire book but despite that, it was still a good read.
