Book Review: Dreams Rekindled by Amanda Cabot
Brandon Holloway has seen the disastrous effects of challenging others and has no intention of repeating that mistake. Instead of following his dreams, he's committed to making a new--and completely uncontroversial--start in the Hill Country.
As Dorothy's involvement in the fledgling newspaper grows from convenient to essential, the same change seems to be happening in Brandon's heart. But before romance can bloom, Dorothy and Brandon must work together to discover who's determined to divide the town and destroy Brandon's livelihood.
With this second novel in the Mesquite Springs series, bestselling author Amanda Cabot invites you to discover the healing power of truth.

My Review
I love to have time to read a good love story. Although I am not quite done reading the book, I have really enjoyed it. It is the story of two young women trying to find themselves during the 1850s, they are best friends, but completely different. Laura has her heart set on finding the perfect man to be her husband and the father of her children. Dorothy has just the opposite plan, she wants to change the world, she wants to make people think. She is sure she will not marry, but a handsome stranger comes to town and I think he might spoil her plans.
I look forward to reading the rest of this book and thank Revel Reads for another great book.
