Calling Me Home by Julie Kibler

I could not put this book down and stayed up very late last night to finish it. It is captivating and touching, two stories in one as 90 year old Isabell tells Dorrie about her past forbidden love of a black man in the 1930s, and Dorrie, a black single mother, struggles with family problems of her own. Their stories are told as Dorrie drives Isabell across the country to a funeral and the women help one another to deal with their past, and their present lives.
