Ginny Dean discusses her novel Changing Lanes in Flagstaff

Three women face their biggest challenge and find the courage to step into uncharted waters.

It’s a chilly autumn night in the forest of Flagstaff. Rebecca flees from her husband and a deteriorating marriage. Running into the night, she passes Georgia, who stacks boxes at the curb from her recent move to the area. Georgia acknowledges Rebecca without a response and begins questioning her decision to start in a new place with no friends or family and without her son beside her.

Rebecca seeks shelter in a popular café, realizing she has taken the first steps into unchartered waters. The café’ owned by Heather, a woman struggling to define the loss of love in her marriage, becomes a focal point for the characters to meet and share the evolving outside world they have found themselves moving toward.

Lost loves, new loves, old friends, and new ones become interlaced throughout the engaging and heartfelt story as everyone unravels their choices in the quest for freedom, independence, and empowerment
