Beautifully written, it makes excellent use of dialogue to keep things moving along and give readers a much clearer and endearing understanding of each character and his/her motivations and actions. You will feel every emotion of hope, despair, sadness, and joy..." Viga Boland for Readers' Favorite "Wielding descriptive language and unexpected imagery, this narrative transports a reader with ease. Harvest Moon is a moving, authentic, and original work of historical fiction, while this series is a testament to Knipfer's skilled and versatile storytelling." Self-Publishing Review A TALE OF FINDING GRACE AND BLESSING AMONGST LIFE'S HARDSHIPS In the wilds of 19th century Ontario, Maang-ikwe, a young Ojibwe woman, falls into a forbidden love, breaks her father's honor, and surrenders her trust to someone who betrays it. The abuse she suffers divides her from her tribe and causes her to give up what she holds most dear. Niin-mawin must come to grips with his culture being ripped away from him. Brought up in a "white man's" school, he suffers through an enforced "civilized" education and separation from his family. When a man he respects reveals a secret about Niin-mawin's past, he embarks on a search for the person he hopes can mend the part of his heart that's always been missing. Both Maang-ikwe and Niin-mawin wonder how a harvest of pain and sorrow will impact their lives. Will they find the blessings amongst the hardships, or will they allow the results of division and abuse to taint their hearts forever? Fans of historical fiction, Native American fiction, Christian historical fiction, clean romance, and literary fiction will be moved by this deep, heartfelt novel. "The pace was fast, the descriptions were on point and her development was incredible. There wasn't a single thing that was out of place or didn't make sense. I would highly recommend this historical fiction novel to anyone who loves reading stories with intricate plots and powerful characters." Rabina Tanveer for Readers' Favorite "Knipfer creates her characters with so much emotion and physical presence that they become almost real in the imagination. Overall, Harvest Moon is a captivating and evocative novel of the importance of family, faith, and forgiveness and how, together, those things help heal a broken heart." Wisconsin Writers Association
