 About the Book In November 1860, Jonah Ashton boarded the Providence with a plan to escort his family to their new settlement in South America and then return to medical school in Pennsylvania before rumors of Southern rebellion erupt into all-out war. What he didn’t count on was getting lost at sea and falling in love. When they finally reach land, Jonah makes a startling discovery that changes everything, but will it change his heart?

Guest Post from Keely Brooke KeithThe Uncharted series has a past… The Uncharted storyline begins in the 21st Century in a hidden land that was settled in the 1860s by Americans. Throughout the Uncharted books, the characters refer to their founders’ history. Soon after the release of The Land Uncharted, readers expressed their desire for more. Why did the founders leave America in 1860? How did they plan the group migration? Where did they believe they were going? How did they establish what is now a fascinating culture? I too was drawn by the founders’ story. When I set out to write it, I enjoyed fleshing out the mystery of how the founders arrived in the Land and what it was like for them, not only for the characters who wanted that adventure, but also those who didn’t. I became swept away on a journey of faith, sacrifice, and God’s unfailing provision. The result is Aboard Providence (CrossRiver Media, 2016). Join the founders as they embark on their voyage to an uncharted land. ReviewAboard Providence is of the adventure of eight families that leave America to find a new home and settle in South America away from the brewing War Between the States. Aboard the ship are many men and women of different trades so they can help each other survive. After being at sea longer than intended, four months, they finally reach land. But is all they hoped it would be? This riveting novel is filled with diverse and wonderful characters that go on a journey to a new world. But it is not only a journey to a new land, it for some it is also a journey of the heart. Keith has written a story that will pull readers in and keep them wondering what will happen next. This is also the type of story that will cause readers to reflect on their own lives. I would recommend this novel to readers that enjoy historical, adventure, and romance.
