Mother Trucker: Because It's Never Too Late!

Sandy is a white-collar forty-five-year-old woman who finds herself in a rut. She's tired of the life she's been living and wants more. One night, while considering her midlife crisis, she has an epiphany and leaves everything behind to become an "over the road" truck driver. It's not easy being a woman in a male-dominated occupation, but Sandy is lucky. She meets four other women at a night school training program. The five become fast friends and form relationships to last a lifetime. With the help of her pals and a new lease on life, Sandy discovers the passion she'd been missing. Sweet and sassy Mother Trucker is Smokey and the Bandit meets Bridesmaids and filled with comedy, emotion, and some embarrassing adventures across America. Author Missy Ryckman draws from her own life experiences in this hilarious, heartfelt book about rediscovering yourself. "Welcome to Tennessee," the sign read, as the bus eased on down the road. Getting closer, she thought, as she shifted in her seat, closed her eyes, and tried to sleep a little more. But sleep was not so easy to come by. The sounds and smells made sure of that, and her brain absolutely would not shut off. ... After two more states, she would be there, and her training would start. Her new life would start.
