About the Book

Presley Sutton is headed to Colorado, specifically the small mountain town of Ouray. She's sold her house, packed up all of her belongings and her chocolate lab, Ox, and sets out for the mountains. Recently widowed and her three children in college, Presley is starting over, and Ouray turns out to be a beautiful and welcoming refuge for a woman in turmoil as this is more than just starting over for Presley, this is running away. With engaging characters who come alive in their dialogue and interaction, Presley's Run, is a woman's journey from despair to hope to grace. Along the way, friendships are forged, relationships are deepened, and others falter altogether, but it's a journey worth taking as Presley navigates a new life and the secret she's brought with her.
