Two Sisters. One road trip. What could possibly go wrong?
Lottie has always followed the rules, her life is comfortable and she is - finally, finally - marrying her long-term, sensible, boyfriend Dean.
Tina is carefree, wild and, maybe, just a little bit careless. She doesn't understand Lottie's obsession with settling down with 'dull Dean'. There's so much to explore in the world.
The two sisters have drifted apart since the death of their older sister. Without her, Lottie and Tina realise how little they know each other. Desperate to remedy this, Tina convinces Lottie to set out on a road trip across the US, just the two of them.
But Tina has one more surprise in mind to shake up Lottie's life - she must say yes to everything Tina suggests, no matter what . . . Madeleine Reiss was born in Athens. She worked for some years in an agency for street performers and comedians and then as a journalist and publicist. She has two sons and lives in Cambridge with her husband and her younger son. Two sisters. Two different lives. One hell of a ride . . . An intelligent, emotional and romantic read - perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Cathy Kelly and Lucy Dillon Madeleine's first novel, Someone to Watch Over Me, was the winner of The People's Novelist Competition. Focuses on women in their late 30s. This is a love story between sisters, as much as a romantic journey, and it's for women who are not afraid to admit they have a little baggage! About families - the rivalry and love, the support and understanding
