From Goodreads:

Rebekah Hendricks dreams of a life far beyond her family's farm in Oklahoma, and when dashing aviator Arthur Samson promised adventure in the big city, she is quick to believe he's the man she's meant to marry. While she waits for the Great War to end and Arthur to return to her so they can pursue all their plans, her mother's sister falls ill. Rebekah seizes the opportunity to travel to Texas to care for Aunt Adabelle, seeing this chance to be closer to Arthur's training camp as God's approval of her plans.

But the Spanish flue epidemic changes everything. Faced with her aunt's death, Arthur's indecisiveness, and four children who have no one else to care for them, Rebeka is torn between the desire to escape the type of life she's always led and the unexpected love that just might change the dream of her heart.

My Opinion:

I LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS BOOK! Its nothing like any of the other books i have been reading lately and i must say it was a welcomed change!

I feel in love with Rebekah and all the childnen right from the start! This was a beautiful write and i dont want to give the story away but she faces alot of tough stuff and it makes it even worse cause of the time era she was in. She is a brave woman and does what im sure very few other girls at her age would agree to do in this time period. I would have done it tho.

Wings of a Dream made me laugh, made me angry and had me in tears all at the same time! Anne made sure you knew each character of her book inside and out you learn their fears and dreams and its like your right living life right beside them all.

I could not put this book down once i picked it up and had it read in one setting. I honestly hope that there are a few more books after this one.

This was a great read and i highly suggest that you read it!
