'Under the Southern Sky' follows journalist Amelia Saxton and her recently widowed friend, Parker. As she helps her friend move on from his loss, Saxton makes a discovery that could provide hope to Parker, but may also bring more pain into his life.
The narrative is penned in Harvey’s unique style, which blends the evocative prose that defines the Southern fiction genre with serious themes of love and loss. Owing to the refined vision and sharply written story contained within, the book has found its place on the New York Times Bestseller List, along with a number of other “Most Anticipated Books” lists.
Describing the book, the author said, “Each dealing with their own private griefs, Parker and Amelia slowly begin to find solace in one another as they navigate an uncertain future against the backdrop of the pristine waters of their childhood home, Cape Carolina. The journey of self-discovery leads them to an unforgettable and life-changing lesson: Family—the one you’re born into and the one you choose—is always closer than you think.”
This novel succeeds Harvey’s most well-known work, the Peachtree Bluff series, which is now in production with NBC as it makes its way to the screen.
One reviewer stated, “Harvey (Feels Like Falling) delivers a heart-wrenching tale of love and loss in this tearjerker. Harvey brings her characters to life, including Greer, whose heartbreaking journal entries imagine the family she and Parker would have. These passages are particularly wrenching, making the book’s happy ending all the more moving. Fans of women’s fiction will devour this.”
This book makes the ideal read for a vacation or long journey, but reader beware: you will not be able to put the book down once you pick it up. Harvey has a reputation for creating narratives that draw the reader in and hold them there, and her latest entry is no exception.
