The Long Way to Austin

Joanna Lyle has spent twenty years almost making it as a musician — filling small clubs, driving a van with a cracked windshield, and running on gas station coffee and stubborn hope. So when her best friend lands in the hospital and Joanna suddenly becomes the only adult standing between two kids and chaos, she does the only logical thing: loads them into the tour van and hits the road. Between homework emergencies, dive bar sound checks, a seven-year-old who keeps wandering onstage, and the biggest showcase gig of her career looming in Austin, Joanna is about to discover that the life she's been chasing might not look anything like she imagined.
