Description
When Molly Casey asks her sisters to drive her home from Reno to Seattle, they’re reluctant—until they learn she has cancer. Recreating the last road trip their family took before everything fell apart, she hopes to heal the rift between them. Instead, misunderstandings and repressed grievances explode across state lines.
As painful revelations spill out like dirty laundry from an overstuffed suitcase—an accident, a withheld letter, a lineage laced with lies—their fragile connection threatens to break irreparably. Clinging to their scars, the sisters refuse to own the wounds they've caused, leading them to question if forgiveness can prevail when the deepest wounds are inflicted by those we love.
As tensions mount, Molly’s plan to bridge the chasm between them seems doomed. But when Molly’s condition worsens, the sisters are forced to confront their unresolved feelings and decide if it’s possible to release their grip on the past before it’s too late.
Told through heartache, laughter, and moments of unexpected tenderness, Roadside Sisters is a powerful story about family, forgiveness, and the secrets that divide us—unless we choose to set them free.
Advance Praise
“Roadside Sisters is a powerful, intense exploration into the raw, complicated bonds of sisterhood. In this journey of love, betrayal, and unhealed wounds, we follow Molly, Penelope, and Scottie as they navigate the ruins of their fractured relationships—a legacy from their parents’ broken marriage. When Molly is diagnosed with cancer, past traumas resurface, and the sisters are forced to confront the secrets and pain they’ve kept buried for years. This gripping novel is wrenching at times, but the sisters’ path to reconciliation and healing will strike a deep, enduring chord.”
-Carla Damron, award-winning author of The Orchid Tattoo and Justice Be Done
