Gus, Jessie, and Evan - grandmother, mother, and daughter. We follow these three southern women as they navigate new stages of their lives.

Jessie has returned, with daughter Evan, to Perry, Alabama and Glory Road after a failed marriage. Jessie starts a nursery & garden center called Twig, which is near her home and her mother’s home. Gus, a widow, and Evan, a freshman in high school, assist her at the shop. Each of them are navigating life’s twists and turns and new and past relationships.

I enjoyed listening to this tale; the narrator had the perfect accent and intonation that made me feel I was deep in the South. This was a nice story of three women staying close to their roots and hearts.
