IN the smoky haze of a small town’s cane harvesting season, May grew up as the silent bearer of her father’s vicious beatings. But four schoolmates save her with the simple act of their friendship.
Now in their thirties and busy with their own lives, the four friends are unaware how important they still are to May: Tate, a ballsy newspaper subeditor is struggling with her new role as mother; Alex, a bohemian soul has let his anxiety get in the way of his future happiness; Leah, the “boy mad” gal is one French backpacker away from her next heartbreak; and Benny, a die-hard romantic is about to give up his dreams and surrender the fantasy of being with the one girl he’s ever loved… Leah.
But it’s May with her unending compassion and loyalty that keeps them all together.
And she’s about to do something that will change their lives forever.
The Crushing Season is Peta Jo's second novel. Described as "achingly poignant and truly heart-warming" by Book'd Out, readers are sure to find five new best friends in its pages.
