"After a decade of silence, Dee and Ben reunite for a road trip they once promised to take-and it's going to be a bumpy ride. Dee Matthews is the cohost of the smash-hit podcast "Did I Forget to Tell You?", where she interviews family, friends, and past lovers. Nothing is off-limits, except for one man (known only as Name Redacted on the show) who happens to be her high school best friend, Ben. During their senior year spring break, Dee and Ben took a road trip to visit Ben's grandma. They buried a time capsule in her backyard, pledging to return in ten years to open it. Then their friendship fell apart in spectacular fashion. They haven't spoken to each other since. Ben Porter's life since that moment has been unexciting but comfortable, until his grandma reveals a family secret that flips his whole world upside down. Her dying wish is for him to stop doing what is safest and go after what he really wants. He starts by showing up on Dee's doorstep with every intention of fulfilling their long-ago promise. Despite her reservations, Dee can't say no. This trip could be her chance to give her listeners the Name Redacted interview they've been begging for-and finally put her unresolved feelings for Ben to rest. As the miles fly by, Dee and Ben's friendship reignites. But the closer they get to reaching their destination, the more apparent it becomes that their attraction to each other cannot be ignored. Their last adventure ended in disaster, and they're about to find out if any hope of a future together is in the rearview mirror"--… (més)

I had a difficult time getting into A Thousand Miles by Bridget Morrissey as I didn’t connect in any way to the characters. I expected to like this book more as it entailed a road trip taken by a couple who had been high school sweethearts more than 10 years ago. Both the reason they broke up long ago and the reason that they are now on this trip was vague. The problems that they encountered and dealt with felt like roadblocks put there just so we could see them working things out together.

I most probably would have discarded this book but I was reading it for a challenge so I forced myself to finish it. I admit that I wasn’t invested in the characters, and as much as the author told me they did – I didn’t think they had any chemistry. Second chance romance stories have to have to be believable, and have a valid point of conflict and A Thousand Miles failed on both counts.

The most fun I had with this book was when I got to push the discard button on my Kindle. ( )
