β¦ Synopsis
Eve Prince is doneβwith college, with her mom, with guys, and with her dream of fashion design. But when her best friend goes MIA, Eve must gather together the broken threads of her life in order to search for her. When Eve's grandmother, Boop, a retiree dripping with Southern charm, finds out about the trip, sheβdesperate to see her sister, and also hoping to alleviate Eve's growing depressionβhijacks her granddaughter's road trip. Boop knows from experience that healing Eve will require more than flirting lessons and a Garlic Festival makeover. Nevertheless, Boop is frustrated when her feeble efforts yield the same failure that her sulfur-laced sip from the Fountain of Youth wrought on her age. She knows that sharing the secret that's haunted her for sixty years might be the one thing that will lessen Eve's growing depressionβbut she also fears that if she reveals it, she'll lose her family and her own hard-won happiness. Boop and Eve's journey through the heart of Dixie is an unforgettable love story between a grandmother and her granddaughter.
