CJ has returned from war. But she has not left the war behind. The one bright spot in her life is her nine-year-old sister, Amazing Gracie, or Mazey, as CJ knows her. Mazey is brilliant, curious, and innocent, but she's carrying burdens of her own, including a deep desire to meet the father she's never known. When CJ heads off on a cross-country motorcycle trip to visit the homes of her fallen friends, Mazey somehow convinces CJ to let her tag along. It isn't the journey CJ expected, but it is the journey she needs. Contending with her demons, confronting her past, and facing her future, CJ comes to terms with choices she couldn't have anticipated. And when Mazey's quest takes a surprising turn, both CJ and Mazey discover that this road trip has been headed to an undisclosed destination all along.A story of family in all its incarnations, Amazing Gracie is a deeply felt excursion presented by a writer of rare warmth.
Laura Drake's first novel, The Sweet Spot, was a double-finalist and then won the 2014 Romance Writers of America(R) RITA(R) award. She's since published 12 more novels. She is a founding member of Women's Fiction Writers Assn, Writers in the Storm blog, as well as a member of Western Writers of America and Women Writing the West.Laura is a city girl who never grew out of her tomboy ways or serious cowboy crush. She gave up a corporate CFO gig to write full time. She realized a lifelong dream of becoming a Texan and is currently working on her accent. She's a wife, grandmother, and motorcycle chick in the remaining waking hours.
"Equal parts inspiring and poignant, Amazing Gracie kept me up late reading to find out if two completely opposite sisters on a motorcycle road trip will find what it is their hearts are searching for. Amazing Gracie is the kind of book we all need right now!"--Kqy Bratt, International bestselling author of Wish Me Home
