"All it takes is one phone call to change your life forever."
Josh's life has been unsettled since his parents divorce. He goes from one relationship to another, has had over a dozen jobs in the last fifteen years since he graduated from college, all trying to figure out what he wants to do with the rest of his life. His current relationship has reached it's end and he is surprised when he packs up all his stuff to move that his life only fills two bags.
He is literally on his way out the door with no plan for his future when his phone rings and he learns he is not as alone in the world as he thought. He has a cousin in North Carolina, he is intrigued by the call until the man on the other end of the phone tells Josh that she has been seriously injured in a car accident and is begging to see him. He had forgotten all about her. They haven't seen each other since they were kids. Why in the world would she be wanting to see him?
Without any other pressing engagements Josh decides to hop on a plane and fly across the country to find out why Helen wants to see him. Little does he know how that phone will "change his life forever."
My Thoughts
I started this book and I couldn't put it down! The plot grabbed my attention immediately. You couldn't find a better set of "misfits" for characters and they are full and rich and endearing. I wasn't prepared for Josh's journey but was so happy to go along for the ride.
Tim Myers is a wonderful author who writes under several pseudonyms and I am so happy to see this book under his own name even if it is self published. This book is one that should be enjoyed by the masses.
Tim was ON MY BLOG back in August talking about the reasons he writes under so many names. If you have enjoyed any of his other work you will love this story. If Tim is a new author to you and you enjoy stories with a little Southern charm, and the perfect imperfect characters you will love this story as much as I did.
Tim has also sent me two more new novels that I can't wait to get at Coventry (Cozy Mystery Novel) and Volunteer for Murder. Watch for these reviews coming soon!!!!

Different than the first in this group, not really a series, all books are completely different, in location and people. Fun to read. Prospective very different. Change of pace.
