Can you find a home in a place where you never really belonged?
One day, nineteen-year-old Katherine Earle simply drove away. From her life, from her husband, from her past. She’s been on the road ever since, never stopping for long and never putting down roots that might force her to call someplace “home.” Now, three years later, she finds herself inexplicably tumbling back into the small Montana town she thought she’d left forever. Confronted daily by reminders of the past and the ambiguities of the present, Kat must choose between the woman she has become and the girl she left behind.

Eleven years ago, Wichita Gray cut herself off from her tortured family by moving to Chicago with her lifelong friend, Jonah LiaKos.

While plotting how to survive the shock of separation, Wichita is broadsided by her pregnant, runaway, little sister dropping in unannounced on her Chicago doorstep. One thing leads to another until Wichita is forced onto a path that will help her discover what matters most, so she can avoid repeating the mistakes of the past and grab her chance to get it right.
For Nicci Bradford, Kung Fu isn't a martial art, it's a philosophy.
The daughter of American missionaries, twenty-six-year-old Nicci Bradford must confront her life and her future in the United States. To help her, she has philosophy and insight from classic Kung-Fu movies starring Jackie Chan. Although she feels a strong connection with a rootless wanderer named Ethan, who works at a nearby Boston coffee shop, Nicci finds herself being sucked into the shallow world of “proper” and “normal” in US society. In the end, she is faced with a dilemma: to go along and become the proper all-American woman with the beige house on the cul-de-sac or to break free and follow her dreams.
