In this prequel to international hit Throwaway, Heather Huffman takes her readers on a journey of friendship, love and family ties. The message is clear: Never stop fighting for the life you believe in.

Longing for a fresh start and a place to belong, Hailey leaves behind her city life, trading her cubical for a struggling horse ranch in the Ozark Mountains. With her young son at her side and her family's skepticism echoing in her head, Hailey is faced with more work than she ever could have imagined - and a troublesome neighbor.

In the midst of it all, the last thing Hailey needs is romance, despite the undeniable, growing attraction for her handsome and charming boss, Ethan.

Just as Hailey finds her dreams tantalizingly within reach, her new world is devastated in a cruel twist of fate. She must find the strength to rebuild all she's dreamed of - or risk forever drifting through life like a tumbleweed.

Tumbleweed is the ninth installment in the surprisingly warm and funny series The Throwaways, twelve novels that don't shy away from the dark corners of this world but always shine the light of hope. At the core of the series is a group of strong but often unlikely heroes and heroines coming from all walks of life whose lives intertwine as they fight for justice, for love, and to leave their indelible mark on this world.
