It's a big one. Isabelle wants Dorrie, a black single mom in her thirties, to drop everything to drive Isabelle from her home in Arlington, Texas, to a funeral in Cincinnati. With no clear explanation why. Tomorrow. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCurious whether she can unlock the secrets of Isabelle's guarded past, she agrees, not knowing it will be a journey that changes both their lives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOver the years, Dorrie and Isabelle have developed more than just a business relationship. They are friends. But Dorrie, fretting over the new man in her life and her teenage son's irresponsible choices, still wonders why Isabelle chose her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIsabelle confesses that, as a willful teen in 1930s Kentucky, she fell deeply in love with Robert Prewitt, a would-be doctor and the black son of her family's housekeeper--in a town where blacks weren't allowed after dark. The tale of their forbidden relationship and its tragic consequences makes it clear Dorrie and Isabelle are headed for a gathering of the utmost importance and that the history of Isabelle's first and greatest love just might help Dorrie find her own way.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"St. Martin's Griffin","offers":[{"title":"Calling Me Home | Julie Kibler | Paperback | 9781250020437 | Used: Like New | Fiction 1599051","offer_id":48313192022168,"sku":"1599051","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/8109vQlCfbS.jpg?v=1773163451","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/calling-me-home","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
