A Borrowed Dream (Cimarron Creek Trilogy #2) by Amanda Cabot

Catherine Whitfield is sure that she will never again be able to trust anyone in the medical profession after the town doctor's excessive bleeding treatments killed her mother. Despite her loneliness and her broken heart, she carries bravely on as Cimarron Creek's dutiful schoolteacher, resigned to a life without love or family, a life where dreams rarely come true.

Austin Goddard is a newcomer to Cimarron Creek. Posing as a rancher, he fled to Texas to protect his daughter from a dangerous criminal. He's managed to keep his past as a surgeon a secret. But when Catherine Whitfield captures his heart, he wonders how long he will be able to keep up the charade.

With a deft hand, Amanda Cabot teases out the strands of love, deception, and redemption in this charming tale of dreams deferred and hopes becoming reality.

About The Author

With both parents avid readers, it's no surprise that Amanda Cabot learned to read at an early age. From there it was only a small step to deciding to become a writer. Of course, deciding and becoming are two different things, as she soon discovered. Fortunately for the world, her first attempts at fiction were not published, but she did meet her goal of selling a novel by her thirtieth birthday. Since then she’s sold more than thirty novels under a variety of pseudonyms. When she’s not writing, Amanda enjoys sewing, cooking and – of course – reading.

My Review

This is the second book in this series that I have read and enjoyed, and now I cannot wait until next year for the third.
We are back in Cimarron Creek, Texas, and with the folks we have already came to love, and boy are we updated as we again spend our time with them.
This story does not disappoint, and even when I thought I knew answers, I was wrong, and then things changed again. We received answers to some questions that were asked in the first book, but as we leave this read we are on an adventure to learn more and start a new phase of life in this small community.
Come and welcome the new residents here, and see if they will be able to stay, and find out the secrets that abound here, and see how God touches their hearts.

I received this book through LibraryThing, and was not required to give a positive review.
