“I Let You Go follows Jenna Gray as she moves to a ramshackle cottage on the remote Welsh coast, trying to escape the memory of the car accident that plays again and again in her mind, desperate to heal from the loss of her child and the rest of her painful past. Though her best friend and PTA President sees her as the “wisest” candidate for the job (or oldest), not all of the other parents agree…” I Let you Go
Jen already has two college-age daughters by two different (probably) musicians, and it’s her second time around the class mom block with five-year-old Max―this time with a husband and father by her side. “Jen Dixon is not your typical Kansas City kindergarten class mom―or mom in general.
