New York Times bestselling author Karen White crafts evocative relationships in this contemporary women's fiction novel, set in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, about lifelong friends who share a devastating secret.

On the banks of the North Santee River stands a moss-draped oak that was once entrusted with the dreams of three young girls. Into the tree's trunk, they placed their greatest hopes, written on ribbons, for safekeepingâ??including the most important one: Friends forever, come what may.
But life can waylay the best of intentions....
Nine years ago, a humiliated Larkin Lanier fled Georgetown, South Carolina, knowing she could never go back. But when she finds out that her mother has disappeared, she realizes she has no choice but to return to the place she both loves and dreadsâ??and to the family and friends who never stopped wishing for her to come home.
Ivy, Larkin's mother, is discovered badly injured and unconscious in the burned-out wreckage of her ancestral plantation home. No one knows why Ivy was there, but as Larkin digs for answers, she uncovers secrets kept for nearly fifty yearsâ??whispers of love, sacrifice, and betrayalâ??that lead back to three girls on the brink of womanhood who found their friendship tested in the most heartbr

Another WONDERFUL Karen White book. We just moved nearby Georgetown SC so this was particularly enjoyable. Just love how I feel reading one of her books. ( )

Enjoyable. Sweet. A love story. A mystery. A novel about learning to know yourself. Lovely Coastal South setting. ( )

I feel as though I KNOW all of the people in this book----White provides so much detail in how her characters think and behave, as well as wonderful descriptions of surroundings and events. Of course perhaps she has TIME when you consider that the book is just over 400 pages. I must admit that I really did NOT like one of the three "best friends forever"---yes, she is presented as a question mark by the mother of at least one of the friends so the doubt is there. How White comes up with her ideas...whew! I really hated what happened with Boyd and Margaret...was that really necessary or perhaps even believable? Another reason for me to NOT appreciate Margaret...... ( )

I have read and loved many Karen White novels but this is in my opinion her is best.
I cried, I laughed and at times had chills from the filling like I was in the room with her characters.
I stayed up very late reading this one. I will recommend this book to everyone that loves a great novel about strong women and family values. ( )
