5 Months and Counting (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781967082339)

A surprise inheritance. A spontaneous adventure riddled with twists and turns. A friendship that stands the test of time.

Kate and Jane have been best friends since college, but years of distance and life's demands have kept them apart. When Kate unexpectedly inherits a fortune, she invites Jane on a whirlwind trip-a chance to escape routine, rekindle their bond, and embrace the unknown. But as they navigate foreign streets and old memories, long-buried truths surface, forcing them to confront the past and the choices that could shape their future.

This journey isn't just about travel-it's about second chances, self-discovery, and the enduring power of friendship.

Author Elizabeth Barnes originally wrote 5 Months and Counting as a way to support her good friend during chemotherapy, offering her a mental escape while she sat through treatments. What began as a personal gift has now become a heartfelt novella, shared with the world as a reminder of the healing power of love, laughter, and adventure.
