Review: The Dream Daughter

The Dream Daughter The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was an ARC from NetGalley and I must admit a different one from the books I usually read. I am not a stranger to Diane Chamberlain books, but she took this story in a whole new direction. No murder or mystery here....ok, there is mystery here. But she takes it to a new level by introducing Time Travel.

The story is set in 1970 - Carly loses her husband to the VietNam War - and finds she is pregnant with his child - but doctors there tell her the baby will not live because of a heart condition. Her brother in law (who is a time traveler himself - a whole other story there) suggests she travels to 2001 because in that time period medicine is doing wonders with infants that have heart problems.

Who wouldnt want to save their child? So Carly travels to that era. And so the story tells us what happens, the trials and tribulations of being torn between two time eras and the decisions Carly has to make to help both her baby and herself.

This book brings together unconditional love, family ties and the unbelievable science all in one package. Make sure you put it on your TBR list when it comes out in October of 2018.
