My Review
White's works are like the finest tapestry's, the words are woven together so seamlessly.
It takes a talented author that can write about more than one time period so effortlessly.
I will admit I was drawn to the cover of this because yes, I do judge a book by it's cover.
The book covers just get better and better all the time.
The book has chaos and turmoil ,hope,failures but perseverance. A strong faith message that I did enjoy reading. It was heartwarming to see Phin go from being a man of privilege who thought he was entitled to being down to earth and humbled after
spending time with Luther.
The romance was sweet and gentle and OH MY.......
I thought all was lost in that romance but at the very end........ Let's just say get your tissues ready you're going to need them.
I really appreciate all the research the author put into this it always makes
for an entertaining read.

GoodReads Summary
Cordelia Owens can weave a hopeful dream around anything and is well used to winning the hearts of everyone in Savannah with her whimsy. Even when she receives word that her sweetheart has been lost during a raid on a Yankee vessel, she clings to hope and comes up with many a romantic tale of his eventual homecoming to reassure his mother and sister.
But Phineas Dunn finds nothing redemptive in the first horrors of war. Struggling for months to make it home alive, he returns to Savannah injured and cynical, and all too sure that he is not the hero Cordelia seems determined to make him. Matters of black and white don't seem so simple anymore to Phin, and despite her best efforts, Delia's smiles can't erase all the complications in his life. And when Fort Pulaski falls and the future wavers, they both must decide where the dreams of a new America will take them, and if they will go together.
