Synopsis: After a decade of silence, Dee and Ben reunite for a road trip they once promised to take. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
Dee Matthews is the cohost of the smash-hit podcast Did I Forget To Tell You?,
where she interviews family, friends, and past lovers. Nothing is off
limits, except for one man (known on the show only as Name Redacted) who
happens to be her high school best friend Ben. During their senior year
spring break, Dee and Ben took a road trip to visit Ben's grandma. They
buried a time capsule in her backyard, pledging to return in ten years
to open it. Then their friendship fell apart in spectacular fashion.
They haven't spoken to each other since.
Ben Porter's life since
that moment has been unexciting but comfortable, until his grandma
reveals a family secret that flips his whole world upside down. Her
dying wish is for him to stop doing what is safest and go after what he
really wants. He starts by showing up on Dee's doorstep with every
intention of fulfilling their long-ago promise. Despite her
reservations, Dee can't say no. This trip could be her chance to give
her listeners the Name Redacted interview they've been begging for--and
finally put her unresolved feelings for Ben to rest.
As the miles
fly by, Dee and Ben's friendship reignites. But the closer they get to
reaching their destination, the more apparent it becomes that their
attraction to each other cannot be ignored. Their last adventure ended
in disaster, and they're about to find out if any hope of a future
together is in the rear view mirror. (Synopsis from Goodreads)
My Thoughts: I love a road trip book, so I was immediately drawn to A Thousand Miles. I definitely enjoyed the road trip aspect in this story. I also really enjoyed this because it was friends to lovers, second chance romance. I love all of those tropes, and I think this story did a good job with them.
I really liked both Dee and Ben. This road trip was the perfect way for them to work through the past and see to the future.
This book was just a good time and I'm really glad I got to read it. I liked it a lot.
