Publisher's Summary

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 for women of the time, they're determined to make their own way in the world. But once they arrive in the Caribbean, proper gender roles 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 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.

Set on keeping her family together and saving her father's plantation, can Keturah ever surrender her stubbornness and guarded heart to God and find the healing and love awaiting her?

I loved the storline, the accuracy of it, the style of writing and the rendition. I will be looking for more in the series and other stories by this author

One of Lisa's Finest

I have been charmed by Lisa's adventure-filled romances since I was a teen, and Ketura has to be one of my favourites.

Taking the well-worn, proper English romance trope and turning it on it's head, we follow Ket and Grey as they travel to the West Indies to find life and prosperity. Ket is both an enjoyable and believable character, and their romance felt real, like we were given the proper time to watch it blossom between them.

So lovely and refreshing to read a romance that doesn't feel idle or baseless. As always, the emotion and love Lisa pours as a foundation for the romances she writes is both charming and riveting in a way trashy romance novels so often miss entirely these days.
