Road Tripping with Pearl Nash

Poppy Nwosu

The summer is finally here, and Pearl Nash is on a mission to save her slowly disintegrating friendship with a whirlwind end-of-year road trip that is definitely, absolutely, most positively going to solve all her problems.

Except, instead of her best friend Daisy's feet on her dash, suddenly Pearl ends up stuck in the middle of the desert beside Obi Okocha, a boy with a mega-watt smile and an endlessly irritating attitude. Tasked with delivering him to the most epic end-of-year party ever, located in a beach shack in literal middle-of-nowhere woop woop, Pearl Nash is certain that nothing could be worse than this.

She's wrong.

Add in a breakdown, multiple arguments, an AWOL nana and a kiss that was most definitely a huge mistake, and suddenly Pearl has the perfect ingredients for the perfect disaster.

<em>Road Tripping with Pearl Nash</em> is a story about home and family, about breaking apart and fusing together, and, of course, about love.

Praise for Road Tripping with Pearl Nash

'I had a wonderful time reading this - the building romance between Pearl and Obi is so perfectly, beautifully complex, original, authentic and sexy. I'm head over heels in love with Obi.' - Jaclyn Moriarty
