Run Baby Run

By Melissa Lenhardt

From the author of The Secret of You and Me, Melissa Lenhardt’s new novel The High Road is a journey into the heart of a mother and daughter’s relationship, with a queer love story, high stakes feels, a road trip gone awry...a Darcy Evans doesn’t have the time or the patience for a road trip with her estranged mother, Marja. She’s running her website, getting married in a week, and trying to figure out how she feels about a bombshell confession of love — and kiss — from her best friend, Chloe. The last thing Darcy has the energy for is to try to repair her relationship with a mother who cut off contact with her two years ago and doesn’t seem interested in explaining herself. Darcy wants to rant and rave and cuss, which sets off Marja’s three-legged evangelical dog, Helen, on a barking spree. Oh, and by the way, Chloe is her fianc&#233;’s little sister.It’s A LOT.Marja had a very good reason for not telling Darcy why she cut off contact, and an even better reason for keeping it from her now. But Darcy is persistent and both women’s nerves are wearing thin. Two flat tires in the middle of the night in nowhere Oklahoma ends with FBI agents, a runaway dog, Darcy on the ground asking what the hell is going on, and Marja standing over the tow truck driver with a smoking gun.
