Karen White
With almost two million books in print in fifteen different languages, Karen White is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of thirty-six novels. Not entirely convinced she wanted to be a writer, Karen first pursued a career in business and graduated with a B.S. in management from Tulane University. Ten years later, in a weak moment, she wrote her first novel. White’s latest releases include The Author’s Guide to Murder, a collaboration with bestselling authors Beatriz Williams and Lauren Willig, and the recently released That Last Carolina Summer. When not writing, White spends her time reading, birdwatching, and avoiding cooking. She divides her time between Atlanta, Georgia, and the northwest Florida coast.
MFOB featured book: That Last Carolina Summer
As a child, Phoebe Manigault developed the gift of premonition after she was struck by lightning in the creek near her Charleston home. Plagued by mysterious dreams, Phoebe eventually moves to the West Coast, as far from her family as possible. Years later, she is summoned back to South Carolina by her estranged sister to help care for their ailing mother.
Upon her return, Phoebe’s recurring nightmares intensify—bringing her closer to the shocking truth that will irrevocably change everything. Unfolding against the lush backdrop of the South Carolina Lowcountry, That Last Carolina Summer is an unforgettable story about the unbreakable bonds of family and the gift of second chances.
