Maggie, a kooky, lovable meddler and an irrepressible optimist, wants nothing more than to fix her son's broken marriage. Ira is infuriatingly practical, a man "who should have married Ann Landers."

As Maggie and Ira navigate the riotous twists and turns, they intersect with an assorted cast of eccentrics -- and rediscover the magic of the road called life and the joy of having somebody next to you to share the ride . . . bumps and all.--Amazon.com
