Once again, Kate Clayborn has excavated my heart and then tenderly put it back together.
SO good. A prickly (but with reasons, oh Jess, honey) FMC plus Gentle Giant MMC (to you like Zaf from Dani Brown? You'll like Adam). Plus ROADTRIP. Definitely a little sexier (imo) than previous KCs (I'll just say: field of flowers, hehe).
Out in March.

Moderate: Abandonment
Minor: Mental illness
The FMC and her sister were abandoned by their mom who ran off with a con man, leaving a 21 yo to care for an 8 yo. This is a major source of trauma for them and also the driver for this roadtrip.
The MMC has a former teammate who struggled with having bipolar disorder while also being a high-profile football player, who since lost his life in an accident. (this is not a spoiler) The MMC does detail briefly how people treated his friend and denigrated his mental illness.
