We are thrilled to welcome back author Annie Hartnett to celebrate the paperback release of The Road to Tender Hearts! Our #1 best selling fiction book of 2025 - The Road to Tender Hearts is truly one of a kind. A darkly comic and heartwarming novel about a lottery-winning man on a cross-country road trip with his daughter, two orphaned children, and a therapy cat to reunite with his high school sweetheart. Did we mention the cat can also predict death?
