I wasn't sure what to expect but I was blown away and sucked into this book right away. Shep is forced to go live with his Aunt and Uncle in California. He is grieving the death of his mother, and hiding from his past in Texas. He is shocked to find out that his mother was not who he thought she was. Her dying wish was for him to recreate the the things she did the last time she was in California. His cousin Carmen and her best friend Samantha head out with him on the 15 day journey. It is a journey that gives him insight into his mother, raises questions about his father, and slowly learns to open up an love. Fabulous story, loved the characters, loved the book!

I liked the cover and the blurb but I had never heard of the author, so I decided to read this. Man! Best decision ever!
This story is well written, the characters and the plot very developed.
Shep grows from boy to man in 15 days spending time re-doing a tour his mom did at his very same age, years ago. He learns about his mother's past as well as learns new things about himself.
Ara Grigorian has now been added to my list of good authors. I would read this book over again, the story is that good.
Reasons I enjoyed this book:
Original, page-turner, wonderful characters
