This story is aimed at the Middle Grade set, and tells just what happens when our lives are disrupted, and we forget to keep living.

The Peach family is having a bad time of things. With the loss of their mother, every day has had new challenges arise, and some have coped better than others. Lucy has seriously stepped up to the plate to make sure her younger brothers are taken care of, supported, and feel the love. Dad, on the other hand, hadn't processed things so well. He's still providing for the family, but it's not so much a family unit at this point as it is four people struggling together while carrying the full weight of their loss. Enter a windfall of money (thanks mom!), a break from work for Dad (though he was pretty much volun-told to take it), and a crazy summer experiment that will either make or break this family...and I'm not even measuring it in dollars.

Some things are more precious than money in the bank, but seeing it through the heartache can be a task and a half. As mind blowing as a random food truck startup for one adult and three kids sounds, it was just the right recipe of potential and disaster to steer these wonderful Peaches in the right direction...back to each themselves and each other. Lucy was the glue, Freddy was the optimism, and Herb was the heart. Dad was...lost in his sadness, and this time on the road together with all its ups, downs, and in-betweens, despite looking like a royal mess at times, was exactly what the doctor ordered.
