A Turn in the Road (2011)
“The entire town consisted of two casinos, gas stations, a fast-food joint and a few watering holes. After the vehicle was repaired, with the promise of a replacement once they reached Las Vegas, Bethanne, Ruth and Annie found a room for the night.

“You can if you want,” Bethanne told her daughter. She propped her suitcase up on the luggage holder, unzipped it and took... out what she needed for the night.
“He’s not going to be too happy with us,” Annie murmured, looking thoughtful. She nibbled on her lower lip. “Maybe I should wait until we’re in Vegas.”
