"The Sea Keeper's Daughters"
by Lisa Wingate
by Lisa Wingate
When Whitney Monroe’s friends and business begin to be threatened by a hostile takeover, she will stop at nothing to protect them. She has no more money to help fight the legal battles that are being forced upon her, and when things begin to go wrong at her restaurant, she cannot pay for any repairs. The inheritance of hotel on the outer banks of North Carolina may just be the answer she is looking for. She travels to North Carolina in hopes of being able to sell off items from the Gilded Age hotel if not the hotel itself. But when she arrives at the Excelsior, she soon learns that things are more complicated than she originally thought. As she begins to go through her family heirlooms, she finds letters written to her grandmother that had been torn up and hidden never to be found again. As she begins to piece the letters together, she learns about her family history that she never knew before. While reading the letters and cleaning out the old hotel, Whitney discovers a Depression-era love story that could change her life forever.

“The Sea Keeper’s Daughters” was a very interesting book to read. I learned things that I had never even heard of before. I was amazed to discover some of the things that the people in the Blue Ridge Mountains went through during the Depression and the many secrets that the mountains hold. Lisa Wingate did a terrific job at molding the Depression-era story and the modern day story together. I felt as if I was in Whitney’s shoes, and could not wait to find out what the next letter might hold.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Tyndale Publishers in exchange for my honest review.
