What They're Saying

Critics Review

“With an addictively acerbic sense of wit and the most empathetic of hearts, Cochrun deftly delves into the complexity of human emotions and the many ways in which we connect with one another. She also perfectly conveys just how scary it can be at any age to try and discern who and with whom we want to be.”
Booklist
“This later-in-life coming-out story is a rich exploration of queer identity and community, wrapped in a vacation romance.”
Library Journal
“An earnest journey of self discovery in this introspective contemporary… with witty banter, emotional vulnerability, and a delightful supporting cast. This slow-burning love story, deepened by a heartfelt depiction of a woman’s late coming-of-age, is sure to please Cochrun’s fans.”
Publishers Weekly

“Witty, moving and unforgettable, Every Step She Takes will immediately win your heart. Alison Cochrun has a special way of making her characters shine through their humor and vulnerabilities. Throw into the mix a literal trek to self-discovery filled with practice kisses and the quaint Portuguese and Spanish backdrop of el Camino, and you get the perfect kind of romance.”
––Elena Armas, New York Times bestselling author of The Spanish Love Deception
“Every Step She Takes healed something in me that I didn’t even know was broken. Alison Cochrun is an absolute master of the genre, seamlessly combining powerful journeys of self-discovery with the most heart-warming love stories. Sadie and Mal’s trek along the Camino was so brilliantly painted, I felt like I was on the trail with them. Told with humor and so much heart, Every Step She Takes should be at the top of everyone’s TBR pile. A truly perfect romance.”
