About Carolina’s Ring
Carolina’s Ring is a modern coming-of-age story between Carolina Stone and childhood friends, twin brothers Ben and Alf Marshall. With unexpected life-or-death events shaping their futures, the novel follows these three friends from the foothills of South Carolina to the campuses of the Virginia Military Institute and The Citadel, and ultimately to the Global War on Terrorism in Iraq and beyond.

“Lynn Seldon’s new novel is an insightful and deeply moving account of ways that duty, honor, and love merge in the lives of two brothers and the woman they have both sought. An additional (and fitting) bonus is a cameo by Pat Conroy, who, like Lynn Seldon, understood the bond of those who wear the ring. Bravo!”—Ron Rash, bestselling author of Serena and Above the Waterfall

“Carolina’s Ring is an unforgettable story of love, loss, and redemption that will stay with you long after the final page is turned. As he did in his debut novel, Virginia’s Ring, Lynn Seldon offers an authentic, behind-the-scenes look at the unbreakable bonds of friendship and loyalty forged within the military college system.”—Cassandra King, bestselling author of Tell Me a Story: My Life with Pat Conroy
