2nd Place Winner for Women's Fiction in the 2021 Pencraft Awards2021 New Mexico-Arizona Book Award Finalist for Fiction Other In the summer of 1993, on the ninth anniversary of her Mama's death, Sandy runs away. Having a fear of germs is inconvenient when you're on a road-trip adventure. However, needing to know what it's like to have a mom, and to finally see the beach means more than anything to an eleven-year-old. Some sixteen years later, a man Sandy never wanted to see again shows up at her doorstep. When Sandy's best friend places an ultimate life-changing decision in her hands, Sandy must venture back down the road, this time with the father she hates. Making these decisions will be much easier with Justin, a long-time friend, by Sandy's side. Yet, Justin's help only leads to continued mixed emotions Sandy has been fighting for some time. A journey rich in history, the truth, and determining forgiveness with a touch of humor is the portrait of life. *Annually, 10% of the proceeds from the sale of this book, and all Savannah's books are donated to dog rescue organizations
