Love leads them to a lifetime of commitment where their dreams have held onto for so long start to come true.
Popular and eligible, Logan De Witt must convince the women in town that he is engaged to be married. A quiet, simple ceremony is what he has in mind for his wedding day. But when his bride’s arrival date and time are published in the newspaper, the whole town joins in the celebration. Thus proving to Logan and his new wife their sincere friendship and support.
Added to Logan’s marriage’s excitement is the question of what the congregation should do with the unexpected donation of an orchard.
Karen Millerson is counting the days until her long-distance engagement comes to an end. She may travel to Oswell City to marry Logan. More than anything, she wants to share in his life as a help and support. But keeping a house and finding her place in the community requires much more work than she ever expected.
Learn, laugh, and love with Karen and Logan as they start a new marriage and work together ministering to their small town citizens.

Dreaming of Tomorrow Review:
Sometimes, you read books that deal with ordinary, good-natured people living their lives filled with love and hope. “Dreaming of Tomorrow” is such a story that makes you smile because of the charming characters and the good deeds they perform.
Although I have not read the previous book(s) in the series, I had no trouble reading this. Logan and Karen share sweet chemistry. The author narrates their love beautifully. Even when they are not with each other at the beginning of the story, you can still feel their connection for one another. Moreover, the author describes the plot in a simple yet elegant manner where you cannot help but fall in love with the citizens of Oswell City. I loved all the supporting characters like Florence Mae, Nellie, Dr. Kaldenberg, and Uncle Henry.
Furthermore, Logan and Karen face quite a lot of adventures. I loved many scenes like Logan meeting Nellie at Akerman Place, their wedding, and their preparation for the wedding. Some of the scenes are emotional and heartwarming that revolves around Angelien and Nellie.
Another thing that I appreciate in the tale is how the story talks about God but doesn’t make it sound preachy and stagger from the plot. I also liked how the book brings out a close-knit community where everyone supports one another. Had I read the earlier novels in the series, I would have indeed enjoyed it more! Overall, I thought this was a sweet story that can be read even as a standalone.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book, which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
