Imagine her surprise, then, when she is abducted by one.<\/p>\n<p> Odder still, her abductor is far from what the popular media have led her to expect, with a body like a tumbleweed and a mass of lightning-fast tentacles. Nor is Francie the only victim of the alien\u2019s abduction spree. Before long, he has acquired a charming con man named Wade, a sweet little old lady with a casino addiction, a retiree with a huge RV and a love for old Westerns, and a UFO-chasing nutjob who is thoroughly convinced the alien intends to probe them and\/or take over the planet.<\/p>\n<p>But the more Francie gets to know the alien, the more convinced she becomes that he\u2019s not an invader. That he\u2019s in trouble and she has to help him. Only she doesn\u2019t know how\u2014or even what the trouble is.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> Part alien-abduction adventure, part road trip saga, part romantic comedy, The Road to Roswell is packed full of Men in Black, Elvis impersonators, tourist traps, rattlesnakes, chemtrails, and Close Encounters of the Third, Fourth, and Fifth kind. Can Francie, stuck in a neon green bridesmaid\u2019s dress, save the world\u2014and still make it back for the wedding?    <br \/> <br \/>\n         From the Publisher                                     <\/p>\n<p>                                                                     <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A delightful novel about alien invasions, conspiracies, and the incredibly silly things\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-base a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/0045da14-81c6-45e3-9356-388fcc35a49e.__CR0,0,970,600_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A delightful novel about alien invasions, conspiracies, and the incredibly silly things\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/0045da14-81c6-45e3-9356-388fcc35a49e.__CR0,0,970,600_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\">                                                                     <\/p>\n<p>\n                                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Kirkus Reviews says, \u201cA cheerily frenetic genre-blending romp...
