Detour Amy Demeritt

The winter months can be lean on jobs for a contractor like Zoey, so winning a bid with the county to plow some country roads is a financial blessing for her family. And it's not such a bad gig, especially when she has a thermos full of hot coffee and some great bluegrass music to drown out the sound of the plow. Megan hasn't seen her best friend in over a year, so she decides to take a road trip with her recently newborn son to visit her in Cleveland. But when a road closure detours her to the middle of nowhere in rural Pennsylvania and a snowstorm strands them on the side of the road, it seems like she'll never make it to see her best friend. When Zoey rescues Megan and her son, it's a bit tense and awkward at first. But as the ice thaws and they get to know each other, they start to grow fond of their chance encounter and love begins to blossom in their hearts. Perhaps, they'll have a complete family for Christmas after all.
