Grace Whitfield is the schoolmarm in Cimarron Creek, Texas.
She's grieving the loss of her mother due to the town's inept physician, although the youngsters she teaches bring joy to her aching heart. When Austin
Goddard, a handsome outsider, buys ranch property in the area and brings his
young daughter to the school, Grace senses a man hiding a secret.
Grace and
her mother had planned a trip to Paris and now Grace grieves the loss of that
dream as well. However, the idea is never far from her thoughts or her dreams.
A Borrowed Dream contains a cast of
fully developed characters, from her friend who owns a candy store, to an
abusive parent of one of the children in the school.
I really
enjoyed this book! With themes of secrets held, big-city gangsters, and a
returning prodigal, A Borrowed Dream
kept me reading in every spare moment.
Cabot tells
her stories with her heart on every page. Although this is the second book in a
series, the storyline kept me informed at each turn of the plot. A map and a
genealogical chart at the front of the book also helps readers to track the
action.
My thanks
to the author and Baker Publishing Group for my review copy.
