Jena Hughes has the perfect life. A highly successful career. A beautiful home. A handsome husband.
But lately, all she can do is complain. Her job keeps her on the road week after week. She never sees the inside of her house for more than a few hours at a time. And if she could just get her husband, Justin, in the same zip code for longer than a few moments…
Justin Reither is a man on a mission. With goals in mind, he’s pushed hard his entire career to make them come true. Will Jena’s questions get in his way?
A wrong turn in the airport gives Jena the opportunity to play Destination Roulette. As she leaves her cares behind for a week of reflection and discovery, will she find she’s been on the wrong path all along? The results may leave them both asking:
Is this really all there is?
A heartwarming look at chance encounters and saying yes, Lori Osterberg’s fresh, witty novel proves that some things are worth reaching for…
In Destination Mexico City, Jena Hughes has the perfect life: succesful career, beautiful home, handsome husband… except lately, she doesn’t find joy in any of it. She complains about the tiniest things, she’s unhappy about her life and job which keeps her on the road for week after week. She barely spends time with her husband.
Her husband too is a goal-getter, focused on his career, his job, and the two of them seem to be drifting apart.
Then destiny intervenes, and a wrong turn in the airport leaves Jena with the opportunity to leave her cares behind for a week, and reflect on her life, who she is, and what she wants. But in questioning that, she and Justin might start to question their relationship too…
This was a fast-paced, inspiring read about self-discovery, struggles, and love. It’s a very true to life account of how romance works, especially with people who have been together for a while.
Justin and Jena are both very intriguing characters, and their interactions were engaging. The author did a good job bringing both characters to life, and making them sound realistic.
I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good romance novel; it offers an inspiring story and realistic characters.
