Every Step She Takes - Alison Cochrun

Thirty-five-year-old Seattleite Sadie Wells is desperate for a break from her predictable life, family obligations, and a sudden wave of self-questioning, so she takes her sister’s spot on a Camino de Santiago tour in Portugal. A few glasses of wine and a bumpy flight lead her to spill all her secrets to her seatmate, Mal — who turns out to be on the same tour. To Sadie’s surprise, the trek is designed for queer women, turning the two-hundred-mile walk into an unavoidable journey of self-discovery. Intrigued by Sadie, Mal helps her explore the queer experiences she missed while facing her own grief and inheritance issues. As Sadie grows more confident and their connection deepens, both women must decide whether their bond ends with the Camino or continues beyond it.
