Summary

A summer road trip turns into a journey of a life time, full of last chances and fresh starts, in this heartwarming short story from New York Times best-selling author Carolyn Brown.

Nita, Sharlene, and Billy Joe, all about to turn 80, are tired of waiting their turn for a funeral dinner. They each have a bucket list and are determined to tick off at least a few of the items before they go. So what’s left but to hit the road? They enlist two drivers—Billy Joe’s great-grandson, Ford, who has just gotten out of the Air Force, and Sharlene’s great niece, Joelle, a schoolteacher who has the summer free.

Spending the summer with three bickering old people in a tricked-out VW bus isn’t what Joelle or Ford had planned, but they aren’t about to let the trio go that far without help. Both at a crossroads in their lives, neither expect to discover an attraction simmering between them. But somewhere between horseback riding at a dude ranch and slow dancing at the Grand Ole Opry, they discover that their elderly companions aren’t the only ones who need to take some risks in life...and in love.

Well read, poor storyline

This is well read but the voice of the main male actor was very over the top and hard to listen to. A very simple story. You knew the ending after the first chapter.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
