Thank you NetGalley for a copy of The Dream Daughter!!

I’ve read many of Diane Chamberlain’s novels and loved almost all of them. This one is definitely in my top favorites of hers. It was such a great story about a woman that would do anything to save her unborn child, including time travel. And how Traveling could go terribly wrong. I don’t know if I would have been able to do what Carly did in 2013, but I really enjoyed her character and story. She gave Joanna a great life and that took a lot of sacrifice on her part.

I love books by Diane Chamberlain and this was no exception. Lately most books are getting too much alike , such as the next "Gone GIrl". This was had me turning the pages to find out what happened next. I wasn't sure I would like the time travel aspect of this book, but it definitely worked. Carley's brother-in-law helps her go ahead in time to save her unborn baby girl. She ends up going back and forth in time. Lots of twists that kept me waiting to see where she would land, time wise. Even the epilogue was a surprise. Read it, you won't be disappointed. This would make a great movie.

This book just totally blew my mind away. I love Diane Chamberlain and this is not her typical book, it's even better. The idea of time travel in a book of hers is unthinkable until I couldn't put the book down. A great story with outstanding characters. A mother who's love and determination allow her to overcome her fears and do the unthinkable to give her daughter life and later the life that she deserves. What would you do for your child? Would you believe in the unimaginable and take a chance to save her. Carly does just that and more with the help of her brother-in-law. Finding herself widowed and pregnant, she is faced with the one thing a mother never wants to hear. But, Hunter gives her a solution, if she can only trust and believe. After doing the impossible, things go awry and she is left to make decisions that no mother should have to make.

Beautifully written. I absolutely loved visiting different decades. Diane did a superb job of keeping facts together and incorporating them into her story so that you could believe it.

Emotionally gripping. This story had me in tears by the last page. A mother's love and courage for her daughter, and the unbelievable gift of life. You will not be disappointed with this book. It is a must read for everyone.

I do not believe this author can write a bad book. Another great story- well written and absorbing. Thrilled to get it and read it!

A different take on a time travel book, i ready did like it. i will like to read more from Diane Chambertain

Unable to review. Book did not download to Kindle despite several attempts. Sorry for any inconvenience. I must say Diane Chamberlain is a favorite for me!

Perfectly delightful book. Something a bit different which was very well presented. Enjoyed all of the characters and it just made me feel good after finishing reading.

Thank you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview the book.

Let me begin by saying I have been a Diane Chamberlain fan for years....literally from the first book she ever wrote!
It’s unusual in my opinion for an author to jus keep getting better and better with every book they write ...but Diane does!,
I was so excited to receive an advanced copy of my favorite authors newest novel from Netgalley, however I was immediately nervous when I realized that the book centered around time travel..... I was completely put out, as Diane Chamberlain’s books are so special.....very different stories but the same brilliant style and genre.
I was absolutely wrong! This book is beautifully written, it has all of the qualities we’ve come to love from this amazing author, just a slightly different approach.
Please please go out and buy this book if you’re a Fan of her books......heck go out and buy this book even if you’re not, because I promise you that you just might find your next favourite author.....than go out and check out all of her other books. You will not be disappointed!!!

What a wonderful, well-written story that gripped me from the beginning. Diane Chamberlain has a way with words. I enjoy all of her books and this one did not disappoint! Love caught between the times..how amazing and far things have come.

This was a great read! You don't really think about what life was like in the past or how someone from the past might react to how we live today. It was very interesting to have that drawn out in this book. It is also amazing how far medicine has come in the last 50 years. Thanks for the great book!

I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher and am voluntarily reviewing it. The opinions expressed are my own!

I don't normally do time travel anything but glad I read through this one. Love all of Diane's books and this didn't disappoint. Great characters and detail from the years presented as well as locations. Heart strings will be tugged on a few times. Loved the ending!

I really don’t know how authors like Diane Chamberlain and Karen White consistently write these incredible, detailed novels that are SO GOOD and come out almost yearly. Its very hard to write and research and put together a book that pulls readers in from page one but Diane Chamberlain does it every single time. I have read many of her books and they are always excellent.

Here is her newest, The Dream Daughter. I don’t even need to check out a synopsis because I already know I’m going to love it. But here’s one for you:

When Caroline Sears receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970 and there seems to be little that can be done. But her brother-in-law, a physicist, tells her that perhaps there is. Hunter appeared in their lives just a few years before—and his appearance was as mysterious as his past. With no family, no friends, and a background shrouded in secrets, Hunter embraced the Sears family and never looked back.

Now, Hunter is telling her that something can be done about her baby’s heart. Something that will shatter every preconceived notion that Caroline has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage that Caroline never knew existed. Something that will mean a mind-bending leap of faith on Caroline’s part. And all for the love of her unborn child.

This one comes out in October 2018, I am so lucky to have received an advance copy. Pre-order now!

My favorite Diane Chamberlain book. Loved it! Different kind of story line; but I couldn't put it down. I still want to know what happened next. Great read!

The 1970's! How peaceful life seemed back then! No cell phones, no computers, no internet...If you wanted to know something you went to the library or to your encyclopedias. We were in the middle of Civil Rights, Women's Rights, the never ending Vietnam war...a man walked on the moon! Life was full of possibilities! Would you leave it behind to travel to a future you couldn't even imagine existed? To save your unborn child, would you?

I Love Time-Travel! The differences in the 70's and the 2000's was brought into focus, (it was an ideal time back then, wasn't it? or at least simpler). What would you do to save your child?

I really enjoyed meeting the characters in this book, they were 'real' people dealing with circumstances that were unheard of back then and taken for granted in our future. I found it fascinating to watch Carly navigate from one time-period to the next.

I have enjoyed all of Dianne Chamberlain 's books and this was Very Good!

Thanks to NetGalley for the chance to read this one!

I love this book, as I have loved all of her others. I loved how the time travel was used to show the story about the bind between the mother and the child. As with all Diane Chamberlain books, the twist at the end was great and unexpected!

See blog

Loved this book! It is my first written by Diane Chamberlain, but will definitely not be the last.
The time travel mystery made me consider what I would miss from 2018. We have problems, but think of the technology. It would truly be amazing to be transported here from 4o years ago.
Timeless story of mother love mixed with this intriguing setting. Highly recommended

Within the first few chapters, I was dumbfounded. Why is this perfectly normal author who writes perfectly normal books dabbling in different elements all of a sudden? I almost put the book down because it seemed way too far fetched to be a story taken seriously. I am so glad I did not. Diane Chamberlain, I owe you an apology. I kept on reading and found myself engrossed in a story about the bonds of family, sacrifice, and the decisions we make out of love.

I'm not going to spoil it for you, but if you do find yourself thinking what I was thinking - KEEP READING. It is so worth it.

It is 1970 and Carly has just received devastating news that her unborn baby has a heart defect and will die upon birth. Her brother in law, Hunter, is a physicist and believes that there is something that can be done. Something that will take a leap of faith on Carly's behalf.

Thank you NetGalley and St Martin's Press.

I'm not into the time travel theory,but I did enjoy the book.

Despite having a hard time wrapping my mind around some of the time travel details, I really enjoyed this. I felt the same way as I did when I was reading Stephen King’s 11/22/63 which is that I’m not really a fan of time travel but I’m going to give it a shot anyway. I think King fleshed out the time travel details a little better and that’s why I probably LOVED that book and can’t say I loved this. I just liked it a lot. I just couldn’t fully commit to the time travel aspect with so many questions left unanswered. If Hunter is alive and in his 30s in 1970, what happens to the Hunter who is born in 1986 when 1970s Hunter catches up to him? Are they both alive in 2001? One is 15 and one is in his 60s? I think I needed more explanation to really love the book.
