Publisher's Summary

Life isn’t about the destination but the journey....

Chloe is eager to drink in the sights and sounds of the Old World as she embarks on a European adventure with her closest friends. Buried in the treasures of the fledgling post-Communist world, Chloe finds a charming American vagabond named Johnny who carries a guitar, an easy smile and a lifetime of secrets.

As she and her unlikely travelling companions traverse the continent, a train trip becomes a treacherous journey into Europe's and Johnny's darkest past - a journey that shatters Chloe's future plans and puts in jeopardy everything she thought she wanted.

From Treblinka to Trieste, from Carnikava to Krakow, the lovers and friends crack the facade that sustains their lifelong bonds to expose their truest, deepest desires and discover only one thing that's certain: whether or not they reach their destination, their lives will never be the same.

Lone Star is another unforgettable love story from the best-selling author of Tully and The Bronze Horseman.

Critic Reviews

"Simons shows the frailties of families and of human nature, and demonstrates that there's so much more to life, such as honesty and loyalty." ( Good Reading)
"Simons's characterisations are excellent, and she quickly draws the reader deeply into the nuances of the story. Highly recommended." ( Library Journal)

Amazing as always!

Like all her other books, the only disappointing part is getting to the end, knowing there won’t be anymore to read.

Awesome.

As a TBH lover, this book not only doesn't disappoint, but gives you some Barrington to pine over. Would be happy for Simon's to keep piggybacking off that saga for the rest of her career. I'd read all of them.

If you haven't read TBH saga, go and do that before you read this. It will mean more.

not her best work

I love the author and have read many if her books. always amazing characters and descriptions. this must be an attempt at writing for young adults and it was quite predictable.

good fas a "beach read" but probably my least favorite of Paulines
