The tale of one wedding dress, 4 brides, 4 very different stories, and a time span of 100 years. Sound captivating? It was! This book combined suspense, romance, mystery, fiction and historical fiction all in one. I loved it!
Charlotte Malone owns a very modern bridal boutique. Orphaned at a young age and never having had brothers or sisters, her dream is to marry and have a real family. Yet the closer her own wedding gets she finds herself questioning if she should follow through. Trying to get away and think things out, she finds herself at an auction buying an old beat up trunk she doesn’t really want for $1000.
Upon opening the trunk she is amazed to find the most beautiful wedding dress she has ever seen. It is in perfect condition but that doesn’t seem possible since it is supposed to be 100 years old. Her curiosity piqued, she begins her search to find out who the dress belonged to. Her findings are surprising, and even more so the effect her discoveries have in changing her life.
The author did a wonderful job of letting me experience of what it was like to be a bride during those times in histories. I was drawn into each bride’s struggles and situations. The book flowed even though there was such a large are of time covered and 4 very strong characters. I loved all the surprises along the way. This was my first book by Rachel Hauck and I definitely want to read more!
