I was able to read an advanced copy of The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain in July and was like, okay this sounds kinda interesting let’s read it. At first, I wasn’t sure about it but I quickly was sucked into it and how the heck it was going to end!
Publishers synopsis:
When Carly Sears, a young woman widowed by the Vietnam war, receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970, and she is told that nothing can be done to help her child. But her brother-in-law, a physicist with a mysterious past, tells her that perhaps there is a way to save her baby. What he suggests is something that will shatter every preconceived notion that Carly has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage she never knew existed. Something that will mean an unimaginable leap of faith on Carly’s part.
And all for the love of her unborn child.
There is time traveling, heart break, friendships, puppies, children, and hope. Honestly, it may be one of the best books I have read this year and absolutely recommend it. It isn’t normally the type of book I read, but I really loved it and kept thinking “there is no way her baby isn’t going to be with her.” A mother’s love it never ending in this one.
