A rich tapestry of wit, grit, and humor…Twenty-four-year old Phoebe Hawley is on a quest to find her family a home. On the road with two siblings, twelve-year-old Maydean and five-year-old Willie-Boy, Phoebe is out of money, out of gas, and out of patience. The only things she owns in abundance are backbone and pride–neither of which she can trade for food or gas.A collision with Gage Morgan … with Gage Morgan puts Phoebe’s mission in even worse jeopardy–until Phoebe discovers Gage owns the perfect place for her clan. However, she soon discovers that Gage is the unlikeliest man in the universe to offer a helping hand.
Phoebe wields all the country smarts she owns to worm her way into Gage’s heart, but nothing works. With time running against her family, she plies one last inducement–her scarce feminine wiles.

Finding home: Jackie Weger
I loved this book. The characters were perfectly portrayed. The comebacks between the main character, Phoebe, and her sisters and brother were priceless. They had me laughing out loud.

Interesting idea, but just didn’t grab me. I found the characters too annoying and the dialogue felt exaggerated.
Amazing! I can say all the usual nice things about believable characters and great story line. The thing that I enjoyed was the fact that the author stayed in character for the entire book. Phoebe and her family’s dialect didn’t slip into polished English once. There were no references to wardrobe or activities that didn’t fit the era or place the …
I took a chance on reading this book and What a chance it turned out! Great read!
People in the American South do NOT talk this way.
The author’s later works reflect her growth as a novelist.
loved it was sad when it ended.
This is the first book where the story was in a sub language of English. I could really feel the difficulties she had just trying to survive for her and her family. The strength of Phoebe was amazing
Superbly well written and Phoebe’s conversations were hilarious.
I managed to take advantage of a rainy day and read it all in one sitting. What a treat.
