About the author-
Best-selling author of the acclaimed Hymns of Blue Hollow series, an epic 1940s Southern historical romance, Kemma Marshall calls North Carolina home. With family roots in the Appalachian hills, the stories of her ancestors fuel her creative soul. Growing up poor as one of nine children, Kemma writes from an authentic heart, painting with words to bring her characters to life. She knows what it feels like to be a young girl who’s unseen. Inspired by the love of a good man and a lasting marriage, and shaped by her years as a mother, she has spent her life as an artist and researcher, with a deep passion for history and bygone eras.

A well-written story!
Hard to put down! Beautiful and painfully written! Kept you on the edge of your seat! So glad she wrote another one; I wasn’t ready to leave the Blue Hills!

So beautifully written…so descriptive that it breathed life into every sentence…every verse…every page. It placed me right in the middle of each episode, not as a mere observer, but feeling like the actual characters, experiencing each emotion as it happened, as if it were my very own. The love scenes seemed so real that my Kindle Fire Reader felt overly warm from my hands gripping so tightly! When the main character was fleeing for her life through the muddy plowed fields surrounding Larkin, I ran with her all the way! I could not put this book down! It was that awesome and real!!..

Beautiful as well as heartbreaking read.
Such a beautiful story of a young woman rising from the ashes of hurt and pain. Many true stories, such as this one, actually took place. These secluded mountain towns. Neighbors would mind their own business when they should have stepped in to stop the abuse that was all around them. What a beautiful story, and how she rose to be free and happy, finally in her life.
