Letters From Jasper
If you had to write your son one last letter, what would you say?
There's only so much crap a person can shove into the back of a moving van, and Omar Watson is officially past the limit.
He's doing what he does best: running away from his problems. This time, all the way to California for a new job, a fresh start, and a little all-American therapy.
But on the morning of his move, Lady Luck quits.
His estranged father, Jasper, shows up unannounced with a suitcase full of secrets and one hell of a proposition: make the drive together.
Reluctantly, Omar agrees-and regrets it the second a bout of road rage totals their car and strands them at a dusty gas station in the middle of nowhere.
That's when Jasper finally comes clean and reveals the real reason he wanted this trip: the letters he wrote his son. Letters full of truths that could rewrite everything Omar thought he knew about his father, his family, and even himself.
But right as the news causes Omar's brain to drop out of his ears, the gas station is robbed, and the Watson men find themselves stuffed into the back of a getaway van, accused of a crime they didn't commit.
Because nothing says family bonding like throwing gasoline on a bonfire.
Now, for the first time in his life, Omar can't run. And the only way out is working with the man he spent his whole life avoiding.
The Perfect Book For...
