The smell of old maps and worn leather envelops her as she settles into the worn armchair, surrounded by faded photographs and dusty trinkets. It's a scent that transports her back to a lifetime spent on the open road, where family ties were forged in the fires of adventure.

From the dusty highways of Texas to the sun-scorched deserts of California, Emma navigates the twists and turns of her life with the same sense of wonder she once felt as a child. This is the story of "The 10: A Memoir of Family and the Open Road", a memoir that chronicles her journey through love, loss, and self-discovery.

With vivid prose and introspective candor, Emma recounts the moments that shaped her into the woman she is today - from the early mornings spent driving with her siblings to the late-night conversations with loved ones. As she reflects on the choices she made and the paths not taken, she finds herself both nostalgic and determined. A deeply personal and beautifully written memoir, "The 10" is a journey of self-discovery that will resonate with anyone who's ever felt the call of the open road.
