PRAISE FOR

Dear Carolina

“Kristy Woodson Harvey weaves a story around characters with rich, complicated lives we all identify with. Harvey’s story walks through the life of an ever-changing family and beautifully shows how a family comes to be. Not only by blood, but also by choice.”

—Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author of Betting the Rainbow

“Dear Carolina is Southern fiction at its best. It shows us that love is not without sacrifice, and there’s little in life that doesn’t go down easier with a spoonful of jam. Beautifully written.”

—Eileen Goudge, New York Times bestselling author

“Dear Carolina is like the Southern women within its pages and those who will love this book, sweet as sweet tea on the outside and strong as steel on the inside. Kristy Woodson Harvey is a natural.”

—Ann Garvin, author of On Maggie’s Watch and The Dog Year

“Southern to the bone and full of engaging characters . . . Kristy Woodson Harvey’s debut novel captures your heart and doesn’t let go; her keen insights into a mother’s love will stay with you long after the last page.”

—Kim Boykin, author of Palmetto Moon
