Summary
Four brides throughout time. One dress that ties them all together. The New York Times best seller from award-winning author Rachel Hauck!
Charlotte owns a chic Birmingham bridal boutique. Dressing brides for their big day is her gift - and her passion. But with her own wedding day approaching, why can’t she find the perfect dress - or feel certain she should marry Tim?
Then Charlotte purchases a vintage dress in a battered trunk at an estate sale. It looks brand-new, shimmering with pearls and satin, hand-stitched and timeless in its design. But where did it come from? Who wore it?
Charlotte’s search for the gown’s history - and its new bride - begins as a distraction from her sputtering love life. But it takes on a life of its own as she comes to know the women who have worn the dress. Emily from 1912. Mary Grace from 1939. Hillary from 1968. Each with something unique to share. For woven within the threads of the beautiful hundred-year-old gown is the truth about Charlotte’s heritage, the power of courage and faith, and the beauty of finding true love.
Rachel Hauck sweeps the listener away in this New York Times best-selling tale of faith, redemption, and timeless love.

Captivating
I confess, initially I found the regional American accent irritating, however, I soon was hooked on the story by the beautiful way the various time frames are described. The characters are so well described, their personalities shine through and you feel that you almost know them. It involves a little of everything, love, deceit, trust, mistrust and above all ... hope. In short, this is a lovely story. I was truly sad when it ended

Interesting genre
I read to the end as I’d never come across a book quite like it. It was an easy read and interesting idea and I enjoyed it. If you’re a Christian you may well enjoy thinking about whether God involves himself in such daily detail as the book supposes. I for one would welcome it, but am sceptical. Rather sadly I tend to think we’re like ants trying to understand an elephant. Perhaps the fault is in me and I’m just not good enough, or trying hard enough, I don’t know.
