From debut author Sally Kilpatrick comes a hopeful tale of love and redemption in a quiet Southern town where a lost soul finds her way with the help of an unlikely circle of friends. . .
Life has dealt Beulah Land a tough hand to play, least of all being named after a hymn. A teenage pregnancy estranged her from her family, and a tragedy caused her to lose what little faith remained. The wayward daughter of a Baptist deacon, she spends her nights playing the piano at The Fountain, a honky-tonk located just across the road from County Line Methodist. But when she learns that a dear friend's dying wish is for her to take over as the church's piano player, she realizes it may be time to face the music. . .
Beulah butts heads with Luke Daniels, the new pastor at County Line, who is determined to cling to tradition even though he needs to attract more congregants to the aging church. But the choir also isn't enthusiastic about Beulah's contemporary take on the old songs and refuse to perform. Undaunted, Beulah assembles a ragtag group of patrons from The Fountain to form the Happy Hour Choir. And as the unexpected gig helps her let go of her painful past--and accept the love she didn't think she deserved--she just may be able to prove to Luke that she can toe the line between sinner and saint. . .

“It is hard to believe that this is Kilpatrick’s debut
novel. The characters are honest, lively and heartfelt. Beulah deals with a
number for relatable challenges. No character is wasted, and they remind the
reader that anything worth having is not easy. A good takeaway is that family
is what we create, not restricted to bloodlines. Kilpatrick mixes loss and
devastation with hope and a little bit of Southern charm. She will leave the
reader laughing through tears. This is an incredible start from a promising
storyteller. Some yummy recipes are included, too.”
