Description

Lena Fleet made three promises to God when she left her hometown of Possett, Alabama: she would stop seeing every boy who crossed her path, never tell another lie, and never return home. Ten years later, it seems God is backing down from that deal. Lena's past comes back to haunt her in the form of her high school nemesis, who shows up at her doorstep with a request that forces her to confront the truth about what really happened all those years ago. As she struggles to come to terms with her complicated history, Lena faces an ultimatum from her boyfriend: introduce him to her family or he's gone. Despite her reservations, Lena knows she can't avoid her family forever. With her eccentric and racist relatives waiting for her return, Lena must decide whether to face the past head-on or risk losing the love of her life. This novel is a humorous and poignant exploration of family, identity, and the complexities of small-town life in the American South.
