Her friend vanishes—now she must stop saving others and finally choose herself.
Some people hold everyone together… until they realise no one is holding them.
At thirty-one, Caroline Coldwell has built a life that looks perfect from the outside: a rising career and a charming boyfriend. She’s the one people rely on, the woman who is always there for everyone else.
Everyone except herself, for she has learnt how to hide her own pain while quietly drowning in obligations and setting her own happiness aside.
But when her best friend Lydia suddenly disappears, leaving behind a husband and two young children, Caroline does what she always does—steps in to hold everything together.
Yet the more she tries to fix everyone else’s lives, the harder it becomes to ignore the cracks in her own. For the first time, she must confront what she’s long avoided: the cost of always putting herself last.
As new possibilities begin to surface, Caroline must decide whether she’ll keep playing the role everyone expects… or finally choose herself, no matter what it looks like from the outside.
Road to Somewhere is a women’s fiction novel about second chances, found family, and learning to put yourself back into your own life.
