Description
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 feel like everything Ms. Bergren touches is just gold. Honest-to-goodness gold. I haven't read a series of hers yet that I didn't love from page one.
"Keturah", the first in the series "The Sugar Baron's Daughters", showcases three sisters who embark on a journey and have to show a strength that surpasses anything they've ever had to go through. I enjoyed all three of the sisters and can't wait to read more about them!
The story does start out a little slowly--getting into the meat of the plot and setting the reader up for quite the story.
I loved the hero, I loved the story development and setting; and more than anything I just love Ms. Bergren's writing.
