What would you do to find your father?  Alice would do anything, from excessive questioning to spying. But even that doesn't seem to be enough when her mother seems determined to keep her secrets.  "It’s the parents’ story from the child’s perspective. It’s the “epilogue” of a drama, the “sadly-ever-after,” and how it got better."   "[Kellyn Roth] writes with the heart and depth of an adult."  "… definitely recommend The Dressmaker’s Secret to any historical fiction enthusiast, or just anyone in general!"   “Roth did a wonderful job in presenting an intriguing book full of body and depth.”  "I quite honestly can’t think of any other novel quite like it!"

At Her Fingertips (The Chronicles of Alice and Ivy)

Ivy Knight feels that her life may never start. Though her loving family assures her that her place in the world is close to home, she still feels a push to move out of her comfort zone. Hoping against hope, she travels to her old friends at McCale House, seeking a purpose. 
Jordy McAllen has just returned to Scotland after his education in London. He fears that what everyone has always said about him may be true: he can’t be a good doctor, let alone a good man. Determined to prove himself, Jordy snatches up the opportunity to become the doctor in the village of Keefmore near his parents’ farm. 
When an old friend decides to travel to Keefmore and visit a relative, Ivy follows. She soon finds herself drawn to Jordy, but as their attraction grows, they both face doubts. A relationship between the two of them feels improbable—and might just require a step of impossible faith.

Beyond Her Calling (The Chronicles of Alice and Ivy)

Souls Astray (Kees & Colliers)

And they lived … well, happily ever after. 
A year into a blissfully happy marriage, Violet Angel admits to a dose of skepticism. She’s not married, granted—but as the closest friend of the bride and groom, she feels she has a perspective no one but the people directly involved could have. There’s no such thing as a happy ending, and it’s only a matter of time before the castle in the sky plummets to earth. 
If only Violet were always wrong instead of just mostly wrong. Ivy McAllen doesn’t believe she and her new husband are out of the honeymoon period—if they are, she isn’t going to admit it to herself—but there are certainly areas of adjustment that she hadn’t expected. 
Changes at the village of Keefmore and in Ivy’s life lead to complications, and Violet spirals further and further from reality. When a castle in the sky turns out to be more cloud than stronghold, finding a foothold proves more than a little difficult.
