Palmetto Moon inspired The Huffington Post
to rave, “It is always nice to discover a new talented
author and Kim Boykin is quite a find.” Now, she delivers a
novel of a woman picking up the pieces of her life with the
help of two spirited, elderly sisters in South
Carolina.
April, 1953. Nettie Gilbert has
cherished her time studying to be a music teacher at
Columbia College in South Carolina, but as graduation
approaches, she can’t wait to return to her family—and her
childhood sweetheart, Brooks—in Alabama. But just days

telling her that Brooks is getting married . . . to her own

Lurleen, but their sisterhood has weathered many storms. And
as Nettie learns more about their lives on a trip to see a
faith healer halfway across the country, she’ll discover
that love and forgiveness will one day lead her home . . .
