"When we run away, we never really leave our problems behind."
How many times had Maggie heard this when she was growing up? Yet here she was, twenty-eight years old, on a train with her five-year-old daughter, running away.
Switch is the story of Maggie and Jack, two strangers who meet on a train, headed in opposite directions: Maggie is running away from her mess while Jack is returning to clean up his. One small act of avoidance on Maggie's part, however, starts a chain reaction of destruction. She learns that the more she runs away, the more out of control her world becomes.
Will Maggie face what she fears? Or will she keep running? Does Jack find the peace he's so desperately seeking? And how will their chance encounter change each of their lives forever?
"Switch is the perfect novel for anyone who has ever contemplated running away from their life--and who hasn't? Heather Vines tells Jack and Maggie's stories deftly, keeping us turning pages as we grown more and more in love with these characters."
