Rachel Hauck – The wedding dress 2,5/5
Charlotte owns a chiq bridal boutique and is about to get married herself. She has a gift for finding the perfect dress for her customers, so why can't she find one for herself? It makes her doubt about her future until she finds a mysteriously perfect 100 year old dress in a battered trunk at an estate sale.
Nope, this one didn't work for me at all. First of, putting the stories of four different women in one book simply means not enough attention can be given to either of the stories, so there was too little character development and big plot gaps. Then, like with my previous Rachel Hauck book, I really couldn't appreciate the supernatural touches. A wedding dress somehow blessed by God so it always fits the wearer and remains in a perfect state? That just didn't click with me. No more Rachel Hauck for me, I'm afraid.
