Publisher's summary

Road Trip Rules: No bad music. No detours. No falling in love.

Hazel Elliot never looks back. If a door closes, she burns the whole house down. But when she’s invited to her father’s wedding, she’s forced to return to Lockett Prairie, Texas, for the first time since she fled for college.

Ash Campbell has been in love with Hazel since she dated his best friend in high school. Now, Ash and Hazel’s relationship is limited to playful feuding over the best chair in their favorite coffee shop, but his attraction to the prickly girl from home has only grown stronger.

When Ash’s car breaks down just as family obligations pull him home, only one person can get him there on time. But Hazel has a condition: Everything between them must stay the same. And if it doesn’t? She gets the coffee shop. So the frenemies endure bad music, inclement weather, and B&Bs with only one bed—and that’s just the drive across Texas. When they finally arrive, Hazel must face that, in a small town, there’s nowhere to run . . . and maybe, for the first time, she's found a reason to stay.

Critic reviews

"[A] refreshing first novel . . . Readers will be held rapt by these two fully drawn characters who struggle with distinct familial dynamics. . . . Sensitively probe[s] the meaning of love and the many facets of ‘home.’ A feel-good rom-com about 20-somethings with a contentious past who share a ride back to their families in a Texas hometown, sparks flying along the way." —Shelf Awareness

"Sweeney’s strikingly realistic tangle of family dynamics and forced proximity between two believable characters overcoming past presumptions about each other, along with sexy love scenes, make this a must-read." —Library Journal

"Smart, layered and emotionally resonant, Take Me Home is an absolutely perfect love story." —Annabel Monaghan, author of Nora Goes Off Script

"With razor sharp sexual tension and crackling banter, this is the frenemies to lovers book of my dreams." —Christina Lauren, author of The Soulmate Equation

"Take Me Home is like the book version of that Taylor Swift song you play on repeat. Sweet. Sexy. And full of heart." —Trish Doller, author of Float Plan
