Pepper Basham is an award-winning author who writes romance peppered with grace and humor with southern Appalachian flair. And he tastes like Christmas, so who can possibly compete with that?! But his heart of gold and his gentle nature earns the BB Trophy. All of the heart eyes for Dave! Intelligent, introverted, and slightly ignorant when it comes to women, our beloved doctor certainly has his hands full with spunky Catherine. I received complimentary copies of the books in this series. I also highly recommend it for emotional cheese puffs like myself. It’s just so good! I truly enjoyed this book (and this series!), so I highly recommend it for fans of historical romances with a strong inspirational aspect. And I’ll go ahead and warn you: I’ll likely be talking about it for a long time. Bittersweet but beautiful, the romance between Catherine and David is one that I certainly won’t forget. I adored Catherine’s journey of growth, as a person and in her faith. Packed full of action, heart, and romance, The Thorn Keeper leaves an impact long after the final words are read. I recently told a friend that this Pepper Basham book is not a movie–it is a mini-series.
