A Treasure of a Book!

Dreaming of Home by Glynna Kaye Ahoy, Mateys! Shiver me timbers...this book was an absolute joy to read. Glynna's debut book was fantastic from beginning to end. Several parts left a smile on my face and a couple times, a lump in my throat at how Glynna delicately handled issues. This book touched me deeply and the story resonated because I have a friend going through cancer. The little boy is absolutely adorable and adds so much joy to the story. I love, love, loved the opening to this very-well-written book. Looking forward to reading many more of Glynna Kaye's books. Don't miss this heartwarming story by a promising new author.

A DREAM-COME-TRUE DEBUT!!

I get REALLY excited when I read a book by a debut author as talented as Ms. Kaye, because if this is her first book, readers of romance are in for some of the best "heartwarming Inspirational romance " that Love Inspired offers. And, if Ms. Kaye's debut book, Dreaming of Home, is any indication, it's only going to get better and better. Ms. Kaye utilizes a light, breezy style to tell a heartbreakingly realistic story--that of burgeoning love between Meg McGuire, a young teacher who has battled and won against cancer and Joe Diaz, the handsome single dad next door whose wife died from the dreaded disease. With the finesse of a veteran author, Ms. Kaye draws Meg (and the reader) into the lives of Joe and his adorable five-year-old son, weaving an unforgettable love story with easy, natural dialogue, a unique and realistic plot, and skillfully crafted settings that magically transport the reader to the charming small-town mountain community of Canyon Springs, Arizona. If you are looking for a tenderhearted romance that packs a spiritual and emotional punch, look no further than Ms. Kaye's Dreaming of Home - a dream-come-true novel for both Ms. Kaye and reader alike.

Dreams Come True

Glynna Kaye pens a debut novel filled with warmth and humor. Ms Kaye showcases the deep struggles within her characters as they consider competing for the same job, yet they can't deny the attraction developing between them. I appreciate the worthy goals each character embraces and applaud the realistic conflicts that hinder their progress. Joe and Meg deal with issues tackled by many people each day. They face the future with uncertainty and discover prayer and faith will ultimately lead them to the right answer. Excellent read.

Charming

I can't think of a better word than --charming. I loved Joe and Meg's story. The opening in the store was especially cute and had me smiling. Glynna Kaye wrote a lovely story and handled a difficult subject with skill. The ending didn't disappoint either-very romantic-in a pirate kind of way :)

Dreaming of Home is heartwarming

Glynna Kaye's debut novel, Dreaming of Home, is a wonderful, heartwarming story with loads of conflict and a couple secrets that are keeping Meg McGuire and Joe Diaz apart. The story, along with a delightful cast of secondary characters that took up residence in my heart, kept me turning pages to the couple's well deserved "happily ever after" ending. I can't wait for Kaye's next book!
