Description: A mother and daughter in Appalachia unpack the traumas of the past in a powerful and reflective novel about family healing and moving on by the author of A Woman in Time. Jenny Caudill grows up in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in a home that feels more like a trap. Shy ignored by boys and wearing her sisters hand - me - downs Jenny spends her time lost in the promises of romantic pop songs and daydreaming in the back seat of her daddy's junked Bel Air. There's got to be more to life. When she catches the eye of the older Rob Lewis a dangerous relationship begins. Her mother's warnings go ignored. After a brush with death and an impulsive marriage in Tennessee Jenny becomes a mother herself. But her love story is far from the one she envisioned. Trading one trap for another darker one she is stuck between trying to avoid her husband's violent moods and taking an unknown risk by grabbing her children running and trying to find a way forward. As Jenny's daughter Charlie comes of age she strives to understand the choices her mother made to confront the traumas that shaped both their lives and to overcome any limits the forces of the past have imposed.
