Mrs. Nash's Ashes

Více o knize

A starry-eyed romantic, a cynical writer, and the ashes of an elderly woman embark on a transformative road trip that challenges their beliefs about true love. Millicent Watts-Cohen is determined to fulfill a promise to her elderly best friend: to reunite her with the woman she loved nearly eighty years ago. This mission unexpectedly involves traveling to Key West with three tablespoons of Mrs. Nash's remains in her backpack. Millie aims to provide her friend with a symbolic happily ever after while seeking reassurance about love's enduring nature. However, her plans take an unexpected turn when a flight cancellation forces her to share a ride with Hollis Hollenbeck, a skeptical acquaintance from her ex's MFA program. Hollis is dismissive of the idea of happily-ever-afters and doubts the success of Millie's quest. As they navigate quirky bed-and-breakfasts, small-town festivals, and even suicidal deer, Millie starts to sense that Hollis might be more invested in their journey than he admits. With each mile, she realizes that this trip may not only be about Mrs. Nash's love story but also about discovering her own.
