About the Book:
In 1772 England, Lady Keturah Banning Tomlinson and her sisters find themselves the heiresses of their father's estates and know they have one option: Go to the West Indies to save what is left of their heritage.
Although it flies against all the conventions, they're determined to make their own way in the world. But once they arrive in the Caribbean, conventions are the least of their concerns. On the infamous island of Nevis, the sisters discover the legacy of the legendary sugar barons has vastly declined-and that's just the start of what their eyes are opened to in this harsh and unfamiliar world.
Keturah never intends to put herself at the mercy of a man again, but every man on the island seems to be trying to win her hand and, with it, the ownership of her plantation. She could desperately use an ally, but even an unexpected reunion with a childhood friend leaves her questioning his motives.
To keep her family together and save the plantation that is her last chance at providing for them, can Keturah ever surrender her stubbornness and guarded heart to God and find the healing and love awaiting her?

My Review:
An historical that goes way back to the 1700’s, a lot of things different from today but still a lot the same. Especially in the attitude toward women. Keturah decides to go to the land her father had in the West Indies from England after finding out about his passing. Her sisters end up going to and a childhood friend, Gray, but he is not directly traveling with them. They have a very interesting journey on the ship going there. Once they get there Keturah finds out a lot about her late father and the trials of making it on the land there. I love how strong she is and determined and will stand up to anyone. I really loved her character and am looking forward reading more about her sisters. I received an advanced copy of the book from NetGalley the Lit fuse.
