<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Jade Handan has murdered her father. For the past twelve years, she's been forced to forego discovering who she is and become the mother who abandoned her. Snapping from the abuse, she leaves his dead body in her California home and is wandering the highway without a plan when Beatrice Hazeldine rescues her. </p><p><br></p><p>Bea appears to be everything that Jade is not: eccentric, passionate, confident. With nothing more than a picture of her mother and a note from an old love in New York, Bea and Jade head out to find Jade's mother. The road trip becomes less about fleeing a crime and finding Jade's mother, and more about the two women revealing their true selves. </p><p><br></p><p>When Jade's past inevitably catches up to her, she is sent reeling. Confronting her actions tests the person Jade has become. She finds even what we trust most can be lost and the truths we most want to run from are those that make us who we are.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A moving tale of a traumatized young woman's journey of self-discovery, richly told in vivid scenes and with crisp, sparkling prose. Hannah Paige has a knack for storytelling and is a wonderful talent to watch out for." - Suman Mallick, author of <em>The Black-Marketer's Daughter</em></p><p><br></p><p>"Jade Handan is a beautiful and complicated character done justice by a star of an author. The relationships in this book are powerful, the prose is stunning, and the truths the characters uncover will resonate with readers for a long time. Once I started this book I couldn't put it down, and I may just have to read it again." -- Nicole Zelniker, author of <em>Letters I'll Never Send</em></p><p><br></p><p>"Late Magnolias </em>is a beautifully dark story about growth and despair. In Jade, you find someone formerly lost, finally allowed to find herself, attempting to put the scattered puzzle pieces of herself back together. Through complex characters, Paige creates both heartwarming scenes and heartbreaking ones. This well-crafted novel demands to be read in a single sitting, and will leave you feeling both satisfied and haunted." - Johnny Abboud, author of It Starts When You Stop</em></p><br>
