About the Book
A daughter of the Appalachians struggles to find a place to call home when family and romance let her down in this historical romance.Book Synopsis
An Appalachian Girl Seeks a Place to Belong Return to the mountains of 1910s Appalachia with beloved author Pepper Basham to discover Kizzie McAdams's story. Kizzie McAdams spent her childhood longing to see beyond the mountains of home, but when her job as a servant in a landowner's house results in an unplanned pregnancy, her world tips into uncertainty and heartbreak. Disowned by her father, she seeks comfort in the arms of the man who promises to take care of her, but his support is conditional and inconsistent. She finds acceptance in the home of a nearby family who not only offer Kizzie friendship but point her to a deeper understanding of God's love. Despite her change of heart, her status as a social outcast brings with it continued threats and alienation so she flees her past in hopes of starting over in a nearby town. But her new world carries many of the same prejudices as the old. It also brings the unexpected friendship of businessman Noah Lewis, a man who lives with the same desire as Kizzie for helping the marginalized. Unfortunately, Kizzie and Noah's attempts to help those in need pit them against Noah's elder brother, a powerful mill owner who holds control of the family finances. Is Kizzie and Noah's growing romance strong enough to battle family power, social expectations, and Kizzie's past to capture their happy ending? And when Kizzie's first love returns to claim her, which future will she choose? Read also:Laurel's Dream by Pepper Basham

I couldn't love this book more! Hope Like Wildflowers is a beautifully written story of hope, perseverance, and learning to believe in oneself. I loved Kizzie McAdam's search for love and acceptance, and the ultimate love and acceptance she received when she asked for God's forgiveness. The amazing characters, the Appalachian setting, and the sweet romance kept me turning the pages, but the faith element is what I'll long remember! The author's personal faith jumped from the pages as she shared God's love and forgiveness through the lives of Kizzie and Noah Lewis. Kizzie finally believed that she was loved, worthy, and wonderful after she found the beauty in sweet redemption! Pepper Basham has never been better, and this book has become one of my all-time favorite reads! I recommend it to all who enjoy historical Christian romance. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.

Somehow, even in the middle of broken dreams, God touches the raw, painful remnants with a teensy bit of stardust. God works out life’s tangles into a better plan than we could ever make. Kizzie McAdams made some poor choices which led her into being alone in the woods, wondering if she would even survive. Loved on by friends, she begins to realize that there is hope and she does belong, regardless, to God! She is His and always will be. Starting fresh is hard but with God’s help, she will do it. Making new friends that look beyond her past brings hope that the wildflowers will bloom again. An ecopy of this book was received through Barbour Publishing and NetGalley. These thoughts are my own and were in no way solicited.
