Today I’m celebrating with author friend Keely Brooke Keith. She just received some exciting news! You’ll remember she visited here back in February and I raved over all 3 of her previous books in reviews here – The Land Uncharted, Uncharted Redemption, and Uncharted Inheritance. So here’s the scoop on her latest news + an awesome giveaway…
CROSSRIVER SIGNS AUTHOR OF UNCHARTED SERIES
Aboard Providence scheduled for release in 2016
BREWSTER, Kan. – CrossRiver Media Group announced today the signing of a book deal with Keely Brooke Keith, author of the ground-breaking Uncharted series.
In her highly anticipated fourth book, Aboard Providence, Keith explores the history of her first series Uncharted. It follows the story of the founders as they leave everything they know to form a new colony. After an arduous voyage, Providence runs aground on an uncharted land in the South Atlantic Ocean. While the rest of the settlers celebrate finding the land they wanted, Jonah Ashton leaves the settlement to explore, expecting to find civilization nearby. He discovers a startling truth that will change his plans, but can it change his heart?
“I most enjoyed fleshing out the mystery of how the founders arrived in the Land and what it was like for them,” Keith says. “Not only from the perspective of the characters who wanted that adventure, but also those who didn’t.”
“We are excited to have Keely join the CrossRiver family of authors,” says Tamara Clymer, founder and President of CrossRiver Media Group. “She is a talented writer with a history of intriguing and entertaining stories that ignite a woman’s relationship with God.”
Aboard Providence is scheduled for release in 2016.

What are you reading this summer?–This summer I have read quite a few novels that I have thoroughly enjoyed. Recently I read and posted a review for a blog tour for the novel Marrying Christopher by Michele Paige Holmes. It is a fun and adventurous regency read and I would highly recommend it. 🙂

Thanks for joining us, Melanie! Good luck to ya! 😉
Oh dear, I think I forgot to leave a comment when I thought I had…oops! I’m guessing by the comments we’re suppose to say what we are reading this summer. Well, I’ve just finished reading Sarah Ladd’s “The Heiress of Winterwood”, first in the series. I will definitely be borrowing the other two from my library….it was THAT good!! 314 pages and I only had 60 left when my eyes finally were too tired to read anymore that day (I had read for hours!). She has such a way to draw a person into the story, with her vivid descriptions of both the characters and places! One of the most enjoyable books in my favorite genre (historical) yet this summer. Next up for me, is a 3 novella collection “Journey’s of the Heart” by Camille Eliott, Winnie Grigss and Erica Vetsch (just released). I get to read/review this for the street team I’m on…I can’t wait, it looks so good. And you certainly can’t go wrong with any of these authors! After that….who knows what reading adventure will await me? 😉
Thanks for stopping in Trixi! I just recently read Sarah Ladd’s “The Curiosity Keeper” and loved her writing style. I’m going to have to go check out “The Heiress of Winterwood” now. 😉 Have a great day!
I’m reading a lot. 😀 Currently, “The Imam’s Daughter” by Hannah Shah is in my hands, but over the summer I’ve read Kate Breslin’s new book, Sarah Sundin’s new book, a couple of friend’s books, and sooo many more. 🙂
Thanks for this give-away! They sound like great books!!
That’s awesome, Raechel! Talk about a fun summer. 😉 Keep reading and good luck in the giveaway!
I am reading no Higher Call and Get Your Joy Back.
Those sound good, Sonnetta. 🙂 I’ll have to look those up. Thanks for sharing.
I just read The Sacred Acre, a vey moving, inspirational book.
I haven’t heard of that one before, Melanie. I love the title!
