Book Overview
In the deep woods of Rosebend, Mississippi, where magnolia roots run as stubborn and tangled as the families who live there, a little girl named Sadie Morgan learns early that some places hold a kind of magic.
Magic that comforts.
Magic that hurts.
Magic that remembers.
Sadie's world is simple at first bare feet on red dirt, rope swings, Mama's biscuits, and the shelter of a magnolia tree big enough to hold all her secrets. But everything changes the day a bruised, quiet boy named Daniel Harper shows up on their doorstep. One moment changes both their lives forever.
As Sadie and Daniel's bond deepens, they cling to each other through laughter, fear, and the storms brewing inside their homes. With a protective father, a soft-spoken mama, and a town full of watchful eyes, Sadie learns that love-real love-isn't always gentle, and survival doesn't always look pretty.
"Beneath the Magnolia: Barefoot Beginnings" is a Southern coming-of-age story filled with heart, hardship, resilience, and the unbreakable ties between two children who grow up trying to become the kind of people their world refuses to let them be.
Set in the 1980s deep South, this emotional family saga invites readers into Rosebend's kitchens, porches, dirt roads, and tree houses where secrets are kept, loyalties are tested, and childhood moments become lifelong legends.
For fans of small-town Southern fiction, emotional family drama, and slow-burn character-driven storytelling, this novel is the beginning of a sweeping saga that will stay with readers long after the last page.
