When Maggie's divorce turns her world upside down, she makes a hard choice, and returns to the mountain where she was raised, and where her father Jacob still farms. Maggie and her father, estranged for fifteen years, have only recently begun to rebuild their relationship, so moving home is not a feel-good choice for Maggie... and it won't be an easy transition.
The suburbs of Akron are a world away from the hills and hollows of West Virginia. Thirteen-year-old Matt blames his mother for the divorce and is acting out, while ten-year-old Abby rapidly adapts. Maggie's dad has changed so much that she barely recognizes him as the hard-nosed parent who drove her away after high school. Or has he? When did he become so wise, and where is the combative, stubborn old man she hated for so many years? As life unfolds on Sutter's Mountain, Maggie starts to wonder if she ever knew him at all?
The Country Roads Series is Mainstream/Women's Fiction set in rural America.
