Under a Blackberry Moon By Serena Miller GIVEAWAY!



Just a few days after she gives birth alone in the Northwoods, a recently widowed young Chippewa woman stumbles into a nearby lumber camp in search of refuge and sustenance. Come summer, the camp owner sends Skypilot, his most trusted friend, to accompany Moon Song and her baby on the long and treacherous journey back to her people. But when tragedy strikes off the shore of Michigan's Upper Peninsula wilderness, Moon Song and Skypilot must depend on each other for survival. With every step they take into the forbidding woods, they are drawn closer together, until the tough questions must be asked. Will she leave her culture to enter his? Will he leave his world to enter hers? Or will they walk away from a love that seems too complicated to last?

With evocative descriptions of a breathtaking landscape, Under a Blackberry Moon will sweep readers into a wild realm where beauty masks danger and only the truly courageous survive, even as the sweet love story along the way tightly grips their hearts.

This book is a sequel to Katie Calloway, which by the way I did not read. It reads very well as a stand alone.
A refreshing book about different people and how you can value others who are different from you.
I really enjoyed the surprise at the end. You will enjoy this read as well I am sure.
A very well told story.
I gave this book 4.5 stars and recommend it.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.

  5. I haven't read Katie Calloway yet either. So, if I win this book I will get this one first before I read Under a Blackberry Moon. Happy to hear though that it can be read as a stand alone. Thanks Mary for your review and giveaway.

    Blessings!
