Blurb: Life for Shelby Morris has been one giant road trip, but not the good kind. After a series of evictions, her free-spirited, classic-Mustang-driving mother Gina has decided to move them to Michigan to put her passion for cars to work at the Ford Factory.

Just when their aimless wandering finally has a direction, they run out of gas and cash to buy more. What looks like a dead end may be the jump start Shelby needs for a normal life. While they earn their keep cleaning motel rooms, Shelby gets to go to school and finally, her true heart’s desire, compete on a gymnastics team. But when her mother, who doesn’t like to be reminded that she is in fact a mom, takes off, things get complicated. Shelby turns to school for help and is placed in foster care with her coach and his wife.

In many ways, life has never been so good for Shelby. Coach feels like the father she never had, she’s making friends, and things in the gym are better than ever. For the first time in her life, Shelby’s greatest concern is where she’ll land in the line up. But everything could change if Gina comes back. Even when she’s not around, Gina’s in charge of the map, directing the route of Shelby’s life, pushing her to wonder, what would life feel like if she were in the driver’s seat. This twist on the underdog sports story will speed straight into the hearts of readers.
