Welcome to Jasper, South Carolina. A place where Southern hospitality thrives. Where social occasions are done right. And where, for generations, the four most upstanding ladies of this community ensure that the daughters of Jasper are married in the proper manner.

Friends from school days, “the gals” have long pooled their silver, china, and know-how to pull off beautiful events. They’re a force of nature, a well-oiled machine. But the wedding machine’s gears start to stick during the summer their own daughters line up to tie the knot. In the lowcountry heat and humidity, tempers flare, old secrets leak out … and both love and gardenias bloom in unlikely places.

Women of Faith has shared the message of hope and grace with millions of women across the country through conferences and resources. When you see the words “Women of Faith Fiction” on a novel, you’re guaranteed a reading experience that will capture your imagination and inspire your faith.
