Fly Away: The Sequel to Netflix Hit Firefly Lane

Product Information

Towards the end of the book, Tully has a dream about Kate, in which Kate tells her that she loves her and that she forgives her. Tully wakes up with a sense of peace and closure, and she finally accepts that she can never replace Kate in her life but that she can honor her memory by being a better friend and a better person.

After eons of pining, Kate decides to end her crush on Johnny once and for all. "Kate knew how Johnny felt about Tully, how he'd always felt. He wanted a woman with passion and fire; losing Tully wouldn't make him turn to Kate. And maybe it was time for drastic measures, finally. Kate's hope had endured so much, but this—him sleeping with Tully—would be the end of it," she thinks. Kate’s daughter, sixteen-year-old Marah Ryan, is as lost in her grief as Tully is…until she falls in love with a young man who makes her smile again and leads her into his dangerous, shadowy world.Anyone who believes in true love or is simply willing to accept it as the premise of a winding tale will find this debut an emotional, satisfying read. I don't know. Can you?" Was she slurring her words? That wasn't good. And she couldn't think clearly.

What can I get for you?" asked a thin, artsy-looking man with hair the color of a tangerine and more hardware on his face than Sears carried in the nuts-and-bolts aisle. As she approached Virginia Street, a bright pink MARTINI BAR sign caught her attention. A few people were clustered together outside the front door, smoking and talking beneath a protective overhang. That's right: After crashing her car while driving under the influence, Tully is placed into a medically induced coma. Kate (in spirit form) visits her at her hospital bed, as do Tully's living loved ones. Together, they reflect on the events that have transpired since Kate's death. Fly Away also delves into Tully's relationship with her mom, Cloud, and her own traumatic past. By reversing traditional expectations, Hannah ( Night Road) calls attention to the modern female soldier and offers a compassionate, poignant look at the impact of war on family.” — Publishers Weekly on Home FrontAnd so, when Tully invites Kate and Marah on her successful TV show, The Girlfriend Hour, to discuss their relationship, they accept. However, on air, Tully ends up bamboozling Kate with a different segment than she expected. On camera, Tully says, "Today we're talking about overprotective mothers and the teenage daughters who hate them." She introduces a psychologist who claims that "controlling, domineering mothers" like Kate can "damage their children's fragile psyches." As Netflix's Firefly Lane proves, Kate and Johnny do eventually find romance. After their first night together, in the book, Johnny calls her "the kind of girl a guy could fall in love with." Tully's response to Kate's news is one of skepticism: "'He slept with me, what? A few months ago? He can't be in love with you.'" Johnny's response is equally disheartening. When asked whether he loves Tully, he says, "'It doesn't matter. She didn't love me.'"
