About the Series
Unforgiven, New Mexico has faltered for years, tripping and stumbling to the edge of default. Doubly unlucky—not only at the end of a defunct railway spur, but it’s on Route 66—the abandoned part. It’s home to 1,500 good, if quirky characters and a few old soreheads. But they’re people who care about each other, and their town.
These are only a few of their stories.

Trouble with the Curve meets Peace, Love and Misunderstanding.
Third generation Jacqueline Oliver was born to be a hippie; she resisted. Through a series of odd events, she finds herself with the hippie grandmother she despises on a Route 66 road trip that could save her business and answer the questions from her damaged past. Or drive her crazy.
