The more I got into Whitney’s story, the more I warmed to her. Though this novel is a stand-alone, it includes characters from previous novels–a technique in other books I sometimes find distracting here, however, it adds texture and dimension. My take: Like her previous Carolina Heirlooms novels ( The Prayer Box, The Story Keeper), The Sea Keeper’s Daughters combines two stories into one, bound together in such a way that only the deeply talented Lisa Wingate can manage. This story matters because… it reminds us that, yes, our stories really do matter. Will especially appeal to… women who enjoy stories that intertwine past and present in one compelling package of relational drama. Reminds me of… the southern-set novels of Karen White If this book were a movie, I would rate it: PG. Why I read this book: for Tyndale for reviewįirst impressions: Cover foretells an emotional, sweeping tale of women’s fiction first pages promise a story I can settle into. Booklist summed up her work by saying, “Lisa Wingate is, quite simply, a master storyteller.” More information about her novels can be found at Genre: Fiction/Christian/Women’s Fiction/Book Club Recently, the group Americans for More Civility, a kindness watchdog organization, selected Lisa along with Bill Ford, Camille Cosby, and six others as recipients of the National Civies Award, which celebrates public figures who work to promote greater kindness and civility in American life. She is a seven-time ACFW Carol Award nominee, a multiple Christy Award nominee, a two-time Carol Award winner, and a 2015 RT Booklovers Magazine Reviewer’s Choice Award Winner for mystery/suspense. Lisa is a journalist, an inspirational speaker, and the author of twenty-five novels.
Searching through years of stored family heirlooms may be Whitney’s only hope of quick cash, but will the discovery of an old necklace and a Depression-era love story change everything?Ībout the author: (from her website) Selected among Booklist’s Top 10 for two consecutive years, Lisa Wingate skillfully weaves lyrical writing and unforgettable settings with elements of traditional Southern storytelling, history, and mystery to create novels that Publisher’s Weekly calls “Masterful” and Library Journal refers to as “A good option for fans of Nicholas Sparks and Mary Alice Monroe.” Whitney’s estranged stepfather is entrenched on the third floor, and the downstairs tenants are determined to save the historic building. But things at the Excelsior are more complicated than they seem. The inheritance of a decaying Gilded Age hotel on North Carolina’s Outer Banks may provide just the ray of hope she needs.
