On the search for the "perfect place," she and her Nan live by their Number One Relocation Rule-just the two of them is all they need. But Jubilee's starting to feel like just two is a little too close to alone.

Soon, Jubilee wonders if Hope Springs might just be the place to call home. But when the town is threatened by a mega-chain superstore fronted by Arletta Paisley, Jubilee is faced with skipping town yet again or standing up to her biggest bully yet. With the help of her new friends and the one person she never thought she'd need-her Momma-will Jubilee find a way to save the town she's come to love and convince Nan that it's finally time to settle down?

A heartwarming novel about a girl who must learn to let go of the past and embrace the future, perfect for fans of Kate DiCamillo and Barbara O'Connor. Eleven-year-old Mabel Cunningham is a quiet loner who only feels free to be herself when she's "extreme treasure hunting" with her grampa-much to her perfectionist mother's disapproval. Nothing excites Mabel more than discovering a heart find, an item that calls to her heart, and the maybes that come along with it. But when her friendships start to crumble and her grampa suffers a stroke, Mabel quickly learns that real-life maybes are harder to handle than imagined ones. Desperate to change things back to the way they were, Mabel devises a plan that she believes will fix everything. Except bringing her plan to fruition means lying to her grampa and disappointing her mother. Will Mabel learn that letting go of the past doesn't mean letting go of her grampa and that embracing the future might be one of her most important heart finds yet?
