One dress. Four women. An amazing destiny.
Charlotte Malone is getting married. Yet all is not settled in the heart of Birmingham's chic bridal boutique owner. Charlotte can dress any bride to perfection-except herself. When she discovers a vintage mint-condition wedding gown in a battered old trunk, Charlotte embarks on a passionate journey to discover the women who wore the gown before her.
Emily in 1912. Mary in 1939. And Hillary in 1968. Each woman teaches Charlotte something about love in her own unique way. Woven within the threads of the beautiful hundred-year-old gown is the truth about Charlotte's heritage, the power of faith, and the beauty of finding true love.

My Review:
I really enjoyed this book! The amazing thing to me was how the story was woven around this wedding dress in a way that kept you guessing. I was constantly picking the book up, when I should have been doing other things, to see what happened next. :) The book was not a mystery yet the story had a mysterious thread about it that held your attention and made you want to keep reading.
I also loved the story of faith, hope, true love that was interwoven througout the stories of all four women. There were also some characters that you loved to hate because of their misguided ways but they made the story intriguing.
This was a beautiful story that I really loved. I really liked that in the end, true love won out, including the true love God has for us. I highly recommend you reading this book. It's a keeper!
