Meet Beverly

This is Our Time

Come home to the woman you left for later.

I write for those who have carried a life - careers built, children raised, storms weathered - and who are now ready (at last) to carry themselves first.
My stories center midlife women and welcome every reader who recognizes this ache and awakening.

The Island Remembers is more than a trilogy; it is a homecoming. A return to softness and steel. To sensuality without apology. To love that is deep, reciprocal, and grown enough to tell the truth.

We are not winding down.
We are waking up.

  • Health - because feeling good in our skin is a birthright.

  • Vibrant - because our light was never meant to dim.

  • Beautiful - because beauty never belonged to youth alone.

I’m Beverly Whitfield, a Caribbean-born, Netherlands-based author. Raised on the tiny, resilient island of Saba, I weave the sea’s patience and the wind’s wisdom into my fiction. My work speaks to the part of you that remembers: the pull of a place, the echo of love, the whisper of a self waiting to be reclaimed.

My debut, The Island Remembers, explores the powerful act of returning — not to relive the past, but to recover the parts we set aside.

Beyond the page, I support women in midlife, to reconnect with power, purpose, and pleasure. Because I believe:

Midlife isn’t an ending.
It’s a powerful awakening.

Welcome to The Island Remembers. It’s not just a novel. It is your permission slip to come back to yourself.

A reader once captured what my work means better than I ever could:

Beverly, it’s beautiful to see a creative and deeply reflective side of you through your writing, a side that would otherwise remain hidden. It resembles an inner light within you that only shines forth when translated into words. The words themselves are not that unique light, but they point toward it for those who have eyes to see beyond the words.
— Jaap Oppedijk, Netherlands
