This is the third book in the Tomorrow series and it's a lovely way to continue the story of Logan De Witt and Karen Millerson as they begin a life together in Oswell City, Iowa during the early part of the 20th century. As their romance develops, Pastor Logan and teacher Karen endure many trials and their engagement is even kept a secret for awhile, but finally, it's time to plan a wedding! Will Logan and Karen experience a calm, loving existence as man and wife? Can they work together to minister to the people of this small town? Author Michelle De Bruin successfully conveys Logan's efforts to serve his congregation while adjusting to married life and she captures Karen's desire to live up to their rural community's expectations of a minister's wife. Many situations that are acceptable in today's society were often frowned upon in 1911 and there is often humor in this depiction of another era. The characters are well-developed and I recommend Dreaming of Tomorrow to all who appreciate historical Christian romance. I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a positive review and no monetary compensation was given. These are my own thoughts. Dreaming of Tomorrow, the third and final book in Michelle De Bruin’s Tomorrow series, lets readers catch up on the lives of Logan De Witt and Karen Millerson. While the story was episodic—a problem arose and was solved before the next one—I didn’t mind it. After spending the two previous books with Logan and Karen, it was nice to spend time with them in their every day lives and the challenges they faced both when apart and together. I also appreciated that De Bruin didn’t sugar coat Logan’s and Karen’s lives. There was sorrow alongside joy, the hard truths of life alongside fulfilled dreams, and a look into the relationship before and after marriage. Fans of Janette Oke or those who simply want a cozy and uplifting read will enjoy this book as well as the entire series.

Added to the excitement of Logan's marriage is the question of what the congregation should do with the unexpected donation of an orchard.Karen Millerson is counting the days until her long-distance engagement comes to an end and she may travel to Oswell City to marry Logan. More than anything, she wants to share in his life as a help and support, but keeping a house and finding her place in the community requires much more work than she ever expected.Learn, laugh, and love with Karen and Logan as they start a new marriage and work together ministering to the citizens of their small town." -- No library descriptions found. |

Though I personally didn’t find Dreaming of Tomorrow to be my favorite, the setting was slightly weird for me and it had been a while since I read the second book in the series. That didn’t stop me from loving the beautiful ending of the series.
The character growth throughout the series has been fun to see, the way readers get to follow along with a romance that is not sudden nor rushed but sweet and learning gave a warm and cozy feeling.
If you enjoy historical romances, stories about teachers, pastors, or small town settings this is the book for you!
