Nerve: A Novel
WINNER AT THE 2015 BEACH BOOK FESTIVAL! “This novel was beautiful, visual, and thought provoking. S.R. Skelton reminds me of a modern day Kerouac…reflections deftly woven into masterful storytelling…You will stay up all night wanting to know how Jesse and Maya’s journey ends, and you won’t be disappointed!” “Skelton’s humor is spot on and left me snorting in my morning coffee and again in my late-night wine!” “S.R. Skelton truly captures human nature in this charismatic debut novel. Her characters are so believable, I felt an instant familiarity with them. The writing is intelligent and encompasses a larger world view—both challenging and confirming the reader.” Jesse fantasizes about living the romantic, beat life. He wants to travel the world and feel the wind of real adventure on his face. When he meets exotic and strong-willed Maya, raised by nomadic hippies, he thinks he's found a lifeboat to carry him from the dull to the sublime. He is thrilled when Maya reveals a secret from her past that compels them to hitchhike across the country together, but can the excitement of a wild, romantic adventure survive the realities of an uncomfortable road trip? Meanwhile, Jean is a mother navigating her own path through the work-family balance. When Maya threatens her tenuous relationship with her child, she has to confront some harsh truths about motherhood. Truths she wants desperately to ignore. Brimming with insight, humor, and generosity of spirit, Nerve tells a poignant yet unsentimental story about finding yourself and where you belong. S.R. Skelton lives in Santa Cruz, California. Nerve is her first novel. It won an honorable mention award at the 2015 Beach Book Festival.
