A Dream of Miracles by Ruth Reid is an engaging novel where two severed paths merge and heal conjoined together.
After losing her beloved husband eighteen months earlier, Mattie Diener is struggling to raise her two children alone. When her son is hospitalized with suspicious symptoms, Bo Lambright from CPS (Child Protective Services) is sent to investigate the call regarding possible child abuse. Mattie tries everything in her power to convince them that she had nothing to do with her son's illness and Bo, believing that Mattie is innocent, works on getting the charges dropped. With all the known evidence pointing towards her being guilty it is proving to be harder than they first anticipated. At the same time Bo is trying to sort out his past from the life he lives now. Mattie and Bo embark on a complex journey that helps them learn to trust completely in the Lord and His plans for their lives. On the way they will come to learn that things aren't always what they seem.
A Dream of Miracles is a compelling story and reading it made me feel a variety of emotions. I thought it took a while to wrap-up but all-in-all it was a good read.
I received this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange for my honest review
