A tale of faith, redemption, and timeless love.
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 discovers 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? Who welded the lock shut and tucked the dog tags in that little sachet? Who left it in the basement for a ten-year-old girl? And what about the mysterious man in the purple vest who insists the dress had been “redeemed.”
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 her own story of promise, pain, and destiny. And 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 timeless beauty of finding true love.
“The story of four loveable women, miraculously bound by one gown, whose lives span a century . . . will take your breath away.” —Beth Webb Hart, bestselling author of Love, Charleston

This was a beautiful book. Beautifully written, beautiful story. Rachel Hauck takes the stories of four women and seamlessly binds them together with one beautiful, elegant wedding dress. Her aim in writing this book, as stated in the author’s note, was to write about the love of God and how it fits everybody who is willing to accept it. She achieved that goal in a quite, unassuming way that believers will love and non-believers won’t find threatening. She doesn’t attempt to cram Jesus down people’s throat – she just wraps His love around them along with the story and the dress. While she’s accomplishing her goal, she’s also giving us a beautiful story of how many lives that seem to be completely unrelated and disconnected, can be intricately tired together. People who think they are alone in the world have family – spiritual or biological or both – that just needs finding.
This book is well worth the time it’ll take you to read it. It’ll make your heart happy. And you might just want to go looking in old trunks to see what treasures you can find.
