The Great Thirtieth Trip

Thelma & Louise meets The Road Trip in Abigail Mann’s brand new story about the power of friendship and reconnecting with those you lost.

Sadie and Roza have spent years saving up for a big blow-out trip to celebrate their thirtieth birthdays.

There’s just one problem: Roza ‘friendship ghosted’ Sadie three years ago and they haven’t spoken since.

Neither of them thought to close down the travel fund they once paid into every month and now it’s too late. They either use the money on the trip they planned on their eighteenth birthdays, or lose it completely.

Sadie has never had answers as to why her oldest friend cut her off, but with her pain still sharp, their birthdays around the corner, and a fund only to be used on the holiday they planned years before, they both have a decision to make.

Should they use the trip to tackle their silence head on, or leave their ghosts in the past?
