by Dorothy Love (Author)
Acclaimed historical novelist Dorothy Love brings the post-Civil War South to vivid life in Carolina Gold, a richly layered historical romance. Set in the hauntingly beautiful South Carolina Lowcountry, this atmospheric novel blends second-chance romance, historical mystery, and the fight to rebuild after the devastation of war.
After her father's death, Charlotte Fraser returns home to Fairhaven, her family's once-thriving rice plantation, but the war has left the estate in ruins. Determined to restore her family's legacy, Charlotte sets her sights on reviving the prized strain of rice known as Carolina Gold, even as financial hardship and social upheaval threaten to overwhelm her efforts.
To help keep Fairhaven afloat, Charlotte reluctantly agrees to tutor the young daughters of her widowed neighbor, Nicholas Betancourt, heir to nearby Willowood Plantation. As Charlotte and Nick grow closer, their friendship begins to blossom into something deeper. But Nick's quest to prove his rightful claim to Willowood sends Charlotte on a dangerous search for answers--one that uncovers a long-hidden family secret capable of changing both their futures.
Inspired by the real-life story of a nineteenth-century woman rice farmer, Carolina Gold is a compelling tale of resilience and love. Rich with historical detail and Lowcountry atmosphere, Dorothy Love's novel captures the beauty and complexity of a region struggling to redefine itself after war.
