The Dream Daughter

The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain

It's time to celebrate author Diane Chamberlain's
thirty years of writing captivating novels that
inspire, enlighten, and thoroughly entertain
her many loyal readers.

Her latest, The Dream Daughter, now in paperback,
takes a decided turn from many of her previous books,
whisking the reader into the world of time-travel,
where anything is possible.

It's the 1960s. Carly Grant's work as a physical therapist
in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, is fulfilling, but sometimes
frustrating, especially when she meets Hunter Poole,
a quirky patient with a mind of his own. But he's the
perfect match for Carly's sister, Patti, and soon they marry.

Happiness is elusive, however, when Carly's husband, Joe,
dies in the Vietnam War. He'll never know the child she is
carrying, a daughter who suffers from a congenital heart defect
that can't be fixed.

But what if Hunter could transport Carly forward in time
to 2001, where doctors have the technology to possibly repair
a heart abnormality in the womb? Hunter promises just that,
and this is the story of Carly's perilous journey to save her child
by considering the impossible, fervently hoping that miracles
do come true.

Yet time is of the essence, and returning to the life she once knew,
may not be quite so easy for Carly and her precious child. Sometimes
the sacrifice we make for our child is the greatest love of all.

This imaginative story takes the reader on a time-travel adventure,
right along with Carly. It's a window into tumultuous times,
the highs and the lows, the joys and the sorrows of the
60s, 70s, and the not-so-distant future of 2022.

Step into this time capsule for another engaging tale
from Diane Chamberlain, and be prepared to
dream.
