Summary

A terrifying future. Fragile forgiveness. Can three good friends rebuild their connection from the wreckage of burned bridges?

Helen Winters can’t ignore the ache in her heart. With one beloved friend facing a shocking diagnosis and the other still walking on eggshells after their blowout fight, the bubbly fifty-year-old craves the lost comfort of their familiar dynamic. So when someone suggests a trio of tickets to Vegas, the determined woman hopes the trip will rescue their decades-long friendship.

Landing in Sin City, Helen struggles to reclaim her devil-may-care university spirit. And as everyone plays their cards close to their vest and tries to make it alone, she worries that time is running out for reconciliation.

Will laughter, tears, and shared vulnerabilities help them salvage their lifelong bond?

A Midlife Road Trip is the emotional third tale in the Midlife Trilogy women’s fiction series. If you like witty and mature heroines, wrestling with hard truths, and friendships that run deep, then you’ll love Cary J Hansson’s heartrending conclusion

Thought provoking

Having read books 1 and 2 in this trilogy, I was invested in the characters from the start. They have such depth and authenticity. It’s a real study of friendship across time. And in this book the author writes with such insight into human nature it had me thinking about it long after it ended. I’d recommend reading all 3 books and in order to feel the full effect.
