My Thoughts:

This is an entertaining and exhilarating book and it’s easy to see the comparisons to Thelma and Louise (two women on the run who become accidental outlaws) but I think it has a lot more heart and depth. Hadley’s husband Frank is an abusive ass and into some shady stuff. Hadley and Grace are on the run with Frank’s money and combine forces to stay ahead of the FBI who was watching Frank unbeknownst to them. I loved the references to local spots like In-n-Out, the Ayres Hotel El Toro, and the 5 freeway – it made it really easy to picture the setting and the route they take.  My favorite part was the mutual respect and friendship that developed between Hadley & Grace.  They’re both moms but they come from very different walks of life. They start out as strangers but very quickly have to learn to trust each other.

Synopsis:

The author of In an Instant delivers a heart-pounding and emotional roller-coaster ride of self-discovery in the tradition of Thelma and Louise.

Needing to escape her abusive marriage, Hadley flees with her two kids, knowing it might be her only chance. A woman who can’t even kill a spider, Hadley soon finds herself pushed to the limits as she fights to protect her family.

Grace, the new mother of baby Miles, desperately wants to put her rough past behind her for good, but she finds it impossible when her path crosses with Hadley’s, and her quest for a new start quickly spirals out of control and turns into a terrifying flight for survival.

Stronger together than apart, the two find their fates inextricably entwined, and as the danger closes in, each must decide how much she is willing to risk for the other.

A powerful story of self-discovery, Hadley and Grace is the heart-racing tale of two women facing insurmountable odds, racing to stay one step ahead of the trouble that is chasing them, and discovering new kinds of love and family along the way.
