Has life left her behind...
Or has she been running from life?
Boarding a flight to Europe is the last thing recently divorced Trudy Asp wants to be doing. Not only is she terrified of flying, but she's already got a mountain of problems at home.
Her bakery business is floundering, she's living with her martini-swilling mother, and her knees are failing her. On top of all that, she's just discovered her ex-husband is engaged to her dental hygienist.
But everything can wait, because getting to the bottom of her only daughter's shock wedding announcement to a boy she's just met in Croatia is more important.
With her friends along for support, Trudy is determined to reconnect with her daughter no matter what it takes. Half a world away, she starts to see her problems in a new light.
What began as a rescue mission and a fierce determination not to be upstaged as mother-of-the-bride turns into a journey of self-discovery and self-empowerment.
Now the only certainty is that change is inevitable, which means Trudy will never be the same again...
