About the author

Judith Keim

129 books963 followers
Judith Keim, A USA Today Best Selling Author, is a hybrid author who both has a publisher and self-publishes. Ms. Keim writes heart-warming novels about women who face unexpected challenges, meet them with strength, and find love and happiness along the way, stories with heart. Her best-selling books are based, in part, on many of the places she's lived or visited and on the interesting people that she's met, creating believable characters and realistic settings her many loyal readers love.

She enjoyed her childhood and young-adult years in Elmira, New York, and now makes her home in Boise, Idaho, with her husband and their two dachshunds, Kacy and Wally, and other members of her family.

While growing up, she was drawn to the idea of writing stories from a young age. Books were always present, being read, ready to go back to the library, or about to be discovered. All in her family shared information from the books in general conversation, giving them a wealth of knowledge and vivid imaginations.

Ms. Keim loves to hear from her readers and appreciates their enthusiasm for her stories.

Loved this multi-layered, multi-generational family saga. Great characters and lots of intriguing conflict and relational issues explored. Some solutions a little too good to be true, but good for happy endings.

Good Read, just enough suspense to keep you coming back. I loved how she worked in the great service of foster care for children. I also appreciated how she developed strong female characters who valued education and careers but also embraced motherhood.

Loved this Hartwell Sisters series

The family stories were heartwarming, full of strong women working on finding themselves,
facing what life presented, and vague
acheiving authentic love and happiness.

Hartwell Women’s Series

I thoroughly enjoyed this entire series. It was well emotionally charged in many instances, it was both interesting and engaging. To be honest, there were times I simply couldn’t put it down! It’s a wonderful summer beach read I highly recommend.
