A heartfelt women's fiction novel featuring best friends, a cross-country road trip, second-chance romance, secrets, and a midlife journey of grief, healing, and rediscovery. Two best friends. A stolen 1966 Mustang. One road trip that could change everything. Tobey Springer is reeling from a brutal divorce. Jillian Bowman is barely surviving the shock of her husband's sudden death. When Tobey shows up with a wild plan and a vintage Mustang, the two women set off on a cross-country journey filled with unexpected detours, old memories, and unfinished business. Tobey wants to reconnect with a man from her past. She also has a plan for Jillian to do the same. But Jillian is hiding a secret she has never told anyone, one that could destroy the friendship she values most. From wild storms to dance floor filled Vegas nights and long highways stretching west, their madcap adventure becomes something deeper than either woman expected. Adjusting the Rear View is a powerful story of friendship, grief, second chances, and passionate rediscovery. Perfect for readers who enjoy emotionally rich women's fiction with humour, romance, and a touch of spice, in the spirit of bestselling authors Kristin Hannah, Elin Hilderbrand, and Jodi Picoult. ___________________________________________________________________Praise for Adjusting in the Rearview:? ? ? ? ?
