    About this audiobook

    Hidden away for years in a trunk welded shut, one wedding dress ties four brides together across time in their hour of decision. As Charlotte unravels the mystery of the dress and its prior owners, her own heart begins to reveal its truth.

    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 purchases 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?

    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 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 beauty of finding true love.

    From?New York Times?bestseller and award-winning author Rachel Hauck comes a timeless tale of truth love and hearts desires.

      Great story to listen to. The narrator made it even more enjoyable. Great message of discovery, hope, and courage.

      Simply beautiful with a touch of magic! Looking forward to reading more from Rachel Hauck! ❤️
    • 3/5
      3.5 stars. Nice story, but the character of Emily was a little grating. The mystical side to this story, and a few ultra-charismatic references, didn’t sit quite right with me.

      I liked Charlotte and Tim, but their relationship was odd and I’m not sure I saw their love story be of the same greatness of the dress’s history.
