Synopsis
Three lives are bound by a single book . . . and the cleansing waters of Molasses Creek.
Having traveled to the ends of the earth as a flight attendant, Ally Green has finally returned to the Lowcountry to bury her father as well as the past. But Vesey Washington is still living across the creek, and theirs is a complicated relationship–he was once her best friend . . . and also part of the reason she’s stayed away so long. When Ally discovers a message her father left behind asking her to quit running, it seems her past isn’t through with her yet.
As Ally’s wandering spirit wrestles with a deep longing to flee again, a young woman on the other side of the world escapes her life of slavery in the rock quarries of Nepal. A mysterious sketchbook leads Sunila Kunari to believe there’s more to her story than she’s ever been told, and she’s determined to follow the truth wherever it leads her.
A deep current intertwines the lives of these three souls, and a destiny of freedom, faith, and friendship awaits them all on the banks of Molasses Creek.

My Thoughts
From the very beginning, reading the prologue of ‘Beyond Molasses Creek’, I was hooked on this book and had to keep reading. Ally’s turmoil at returning and confronting the past with Vesy, her true love, and ‘ the scene of the crime’, had my senses tingling. Nicole Seitz kept my interest as she flitted back & forth from the present to the past always keeping you wanting for more. The book carries you through Ally’s fears, loss and inner turmoil and then lifts you up to share in her greatest joy. A very good read and a strong recommendation for others to give it a try.
