About The Girl on the Mountain
Abandoned. Slandered. Determined to survive.
Raised to be proper and obedient, May Rose never expected the man she loved to leave her behind—or to find herself alone and friendless in a harsh mountain town. The gossip is cruel, the judgment unrelenting, and the lies about her spread faster than truth can follow. But when she takes in an unruly, homeless child, she finds her first friend… and her first encourager.
A heartfelt Appalachian tale of resilience, forgiveness, and the women who endure when the world turns against them.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Atmospheric Appalachian historical fiction
- Strong, resilient heroines
- Slow-burn drama, family secrets, and small-town tensions
- Series you can sink into for many books
