A woman embarks on a cross-country search for meaning that takes her exactly where she needs to be—with those she needs the most.
When Charlotte "Charlie" Hasting's father dies, she knows her life will never be the same. Since her mother left after her birth, Charlie's limo-driver father had sacrificed everything to give her a happy home in Brooklyn, and every opportunity to succeed.
But after finding a stash of letters from the mother she never knew, Charlie can see exactly what's been missing in her life. Determined to track her mom down, Charlie quits her high-powered job and road trips to California, giving her plenty of time to rethink her life. But before she can even leave New York, she winds up with an unexpected passenger . . .
The mysterious Graham Mead has his own reason for heading west, one that Charlie will discover on a journey that will help two lost people find a home—and a future—within their own hearts.
