"Jodi McCarty is seventeen when she's sentenced to life in prison for manslaughter. She's released eighteen years later and finds herself reeling from the shock of unexpected freedom. Not yet able to return to her lost home in the Appalachian mountains, she heads south in search of someone she left behind, as a way of finally making amends. There, she will meet and fall in love with Miranda, a troubled young mother living in a motel room with her children. Together they head toward what they hope will be a new home and fresh start--but what do you do with a town and a family that refuses to change?"-- Provided by publisher.

Unexpected submitted by kerenemoore on August 27, 2020, 2:22am I found this book old school shelf surfing. From the depths of stacks, when there seemed to be nothing else to read, this book called out to me. We follow the main character from prison into a ragtag, bizarre co-parenting fiasco with a woman who just can't seem to get it together. It's bad decision making at its worst. It's a train wreck. It doesn't get better until it ends. Beneath it all, there is still humanity. It translates. We want the protagonist to make those tough decisions and find her way.
