A Road Trip Leads to Romance

Megan, Scarlett, and Juliet grew up together. Juliet moved away and Megan and Scarlett had a falling out. They haven’t spoken in years. Juliet knowing nothing about the rift invites both friends to her wedding in Quebec. Scarlett suggest they make the trip an adventure and drive to Quebec from Florida.


Megan isn’t sure she wants to spend that much time with her ex-friend, but she’s in a dead-end job and feels the need for something more. As the miles roll by, the friends begin to communicate. In fact, as the adventure progresses they become more intimate until Megan has to face her own sexuality. Scarlett had been aware of hers for years, but Megan had been trying to ignore her interest in women.


This is a romance, but it’s also a character study. As the characters get to know each other again and let their guard down, they become very real. I liked both characters, but Megan was my favorite. She had to figure out who she really was. I thought she did it bravely.


The trip is also interesting with rest stops at a variety of places that are well described. You almost feel you’re on the trip with them.


I received this book from Harlequin for this review.
