Bailey Miller is "disconnected" from the cluster of her rural south Texas family.
She has never quite fit in with her tight-knot clan, and now in her early 30s she is struggling with inner turmoil, stuck in a rut that is her life.
The tell-tale signs of her apathy? She's drinking too much - even for a member of her family - eating spoonfuls of Cool Whip, and all of her relationship attempts seem to expire faster than the milk in her fridge. Even her quirky best friends can't seem to make things right this time.
After being demoted from an already impossibly boring job, she quits, packs up and heads out of Texas in search of the answers to secrets from her estranged great-grandmother's past.
What she finds are the answers to some of her own secrets.
And not without a little romance along the way!
"I had to force myself to put it down at night. Bailey is the type of woman that so many of us are on the inside and so desperately wish we were on the outside."
..". I laughed till I cried, then cried till I laughed. This is one I will read over and over again."
Ever questioned why you got stuck with the family you did, what you are doing with your job and your life, or had a sudden desire to run off to the mountains? Get cozy, pour yourself a glass of wine, and enjoy every second of this laugh-out-loud and emotional ride from the comfort of your sofa!
"The charm, the wit, the heartache and pain, all overtook me and before I knew it, I was at the end."
"When [the story] ended, I just felt content, and there's really not much better than that."
"Humor, intrigue, romance and life lessons. If you are looking for a story that is women's fiction at its best, then Blue Straggler is the book for you!"
