The Sea Keeper's Daughters by Lisa Wingate
Carolina Series Book Three
As in all of her books, the author takes the reader on an adventure. Several adventures, actually. Not only does the reader travel from Michigan to The Outer Banks with Whitney Monroe, but we also travel back in time as she finds letters telling of another life in another time.
The present has Whitney struggling between her business in Michigan and dealing with an estranged stepfather and an old hotel in North Carolina. The easy thing is to put Clyde in a home and sell the hotel, dislodging business owners as well. Some old items she finds has her rethinking her decisions. Her life.
Old letters bring the reader to the past. Tales of a great aunt Whitney never knew she had. A woman who traveled the back roads of the Blue Ridge Mountains to tell the stories of the people hidden there. Finding prejudice and superstitions that are not so hidden.
This is a great series and each book is standalone but if you enjoy reading series, you'll want to read the previous books as the same characters come into this story. *Tissue alert
