I am reviewing a copy of A Life Once Dreamed Through Revell and Netgalley:

This book transports us to Dakota Territory in the 1880’s, where we meet Agnes Pratt who six years prior had been running in search of a new start because of a shocking secret.  She found her new in Penance, a rugged town of miners and lumberjacks in the Dakota Territory, where she became Miss Aggie, respected schoolteacher and confirmed old maid.    The past has a way of catching up people.

After childhood friend and former sweetheart James Harris accepts a position as the town doctor.   Aggie’s predictable days become anything but once James comes to town.   James wants to know why Agnes left behind the life they had dreamed of creating for themselves, the problem is he is the only person who can never know.

Will a healing light be able to shed on the past, in the shadows of the Black Hills?  Will the secret Agnes can't seem to outrun destroy her chance at happiness?

If you want to step back into 1880’s,  A Life Once Dreamed is just the ticket.

I find their book to be worthy of five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
