Romance Contemporary
A successful Web designer, forty-year-old India has a
fabulously hip life in Denver and a sexy Irish lover in
New York who jets out to see her on bi-weekly visits. The
long-distance romance suits India just fine: Though Jack
is the only man who has ever made India feel truly alive,
she doesn’t want things to get too serious. But then her
father passes away, and India must honor the promise she
made to him: to look after her mother when he’s gone. Suddenly India finds herself back in Colorado Springs with
the woman who both intrigues and infuriates her. Eldora is
sixty something and exquisitely gorgeous, but her larger-
than-life personality can suck the air out of a room. True
to form, Eldora throws India a curveball, insisting that
they hit the road to look for India’s twin, Gypsy, a
brilliant artist who lives a vagabond’s existence in the
remote mountain towns of New Mexico. It looks like India
can’t avoid her mother’s intensity any longer, especially
after she discovers stunning secrets from Eldora’s past. Thirty years ago, Eldora regaled her twin girls with
glamorous stories about her days as a Las Vegas showgirl–
stories of martinis and music at the Sahara, back when
Frank and Sammy ruled the town. But the story of how she
really ended up in Sin City, and the unsavory life she’d
run from with her daughters in tow, is full of details
she’s never seen fit to share–until now. As mother and daughter sail down Route 66, the very road
Eldora drove those many years ago, looking for Gypsy,
while passing motels, diners, and souvenir shops, Eldora
must relive a lifetime of memories that have tormented her
before she can put them to rest once and for all. . . .
