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.

    beautiful!

    I have never read a book by Rosanna White that I didn't love, and this is no exception, even if it takes a different theme from her other novels. I thought I had the plot all figured out after the first few chapters, but, of course, Rosanna White brought in her brilliant plot twists, which kept me guessing and engrossed throughout! As always, the faith theme shines out through the story, inspiring one's own faith and prayer.

    A really important story

    I absolutely loved this book by Roseanna White. Through this book Roseanna tells an important story of American history and the slave trade. I really appreciate the way she writes and the depth she brings to her characters. This book is engrossing and I couldn't put it down. I would definitely recommend this book.

    Never fails to deliver

    Roseanna White never fails to deliver on her books. And Dreams of Savannah was no exception. \\nFull of twists and turns, laughs and cries, and of course, a healthy dose of romance.

    Worthwhile

    I found it difficult to empathise with either of the main characters. Cordelia is a nice enough young lady, but she is sheltered and nave (to the point where she's noticed she and her slave have similar unusual features, but hasn't realised her slave is actually her half-sister). \\n\\nPhineas Dunn is a nice enough young man, but has completely bought into the Southern lie that black slaves are somehow subhuman (despite the presence of mixed-race slaves and apparent acceptance of how mixed-race slaves are conceived). \\n\\nI guess both characters were products of their upbringing. Neither had ever been put in a situation where those beliefs might be challenged. As a result, I wasn't interested in either character at first. But I was interested in two of the black characters, Selina and Luther, and the main reason I kept reading was to find out what happened to them. \\n\\nI'm glad I pushed through, because the second half of the Dreams of Savannah was excellent. Delia and Phin changed and grew as people, there was a solid underlying Christian message, and I realised I was interested in finding out whether Delia and Phin would get their happy-ever-after, against the wishes of Delia's father. \\n\\nWhile this is never going to be my favourite Roseanna M White story, the writing is excellent, the story has a strong and worthy message, and is worthwhile reading. \\n\\nThanks to Bethany House and NetGalley for providing a free ebook for review.
