Lora Donnavan needs a home where she will feel not only needed but cherished... but who will take her there? If you want to know about wing nuts, oversize loads, and highways routes, ask Lora Donnavan. As a truck escort driver, she's a true professional. But if you want to know what makes her tick, the macadam stops there. An alcoholic father, a sister with multiple sclerosis, and a frustrated and helpless mother are only part of the baggage Lora must check with each trip. Her nightmares and unexplained fears are the carry-on items. When Michael Harrington, the owner of Lora's truck escort company, signs on for a trip, Lora's solitary enjoyment of the open road--and her guarded past--comes to a halt. All to soon both of them know what is almost impossible: Love needs a home.
