The second book in the Dream Trilogy, Kate Powell, oprhaned at the age of eight, was raised by the Templetons, and has vowed never to disappoint them.
I'm sorry the book had to end
Love Everything Nora writes!
I can't say enough how much I loved this series. Kate's character made for a really fun, interesting story--Kate and romance aren't two words she'd ever put together! I also really liked seeing Margo again from the first book; I always enjoy checking in with characters I loved in other stories.
A great book in a great series by Nora Roberts!
Love everything Nora writes!
Nora Roberts continues what she started in "Daring to Dream" in this wonderful second book of the trilogy.
Kate Powell, cousin to the Templeton children who was raised as one of their own after the death of her own parents when she was a child, has spent her whole life trying to be the best at everything she does so that she can "pay them back" for their generosity. Close to her goal of becoming partner in an accounting firm, her world is rocked by not one but two revelations -- the first, that her father had a cloud of scandal hanging over him at the time of his death, and the second, that she suddenly finds herself facing a similar scandal. In addition stress and worry make her ill, and she is forced to re-evaluate her life and her goals.
Kate is a wonderful heroine. She's strong, independent, smart, and far easier to relate to than the glamorous Margo of the first book. Her independent streak and desire to stand on her own take some getting used to for Byron De Witt, a southern gentleman through and through who is surprised to find himself falling in love with a woman so completely not his "type".
As wonderful as it is to watch Kate's relationship with Byron develop, the best part of this book (like the first) is the relationship between Kate, Margo, and Laura -- three women who grew up as sisters and whose bond is stronger than blood.
Great Gift book!
