Book Overview
The year is 1835 and Carolina Adams finds herself enchanted by an unlikely suitor...the railroad. Frustrated by society's expectations upon her gender, she longs to study more masculine subjects and is thrilled when her father grants her a tutor. James Baldwin arrives to serve as Carolina's teacher, but of more importance, he is to court Carolina's beautiful older sister, Virginia. Will expectations--and Virginia's southern charm--elicit the hoped-for proposal? Or will James and Carolina dare to acknowledge the mutual interests and feelings growing between them?

Ribbons of steal is a wonderful story with unforgetible characters. I fell in love this this series and can't wait to read the next book.
Intriguingly suspenseful, page turner

Distant Dreams is a wonderful book. I liked how it was not your usual romance. You had to deal with the society's rules of the time. I admire Carolina for her tenacity. I'm reading the second book now. Like I said, I like how it's not your usual romance, it doesn't turn out how you expect. I highly recomend it to everyone.
The Book was compelling. I had trouble putting it down.

The time frame was interesting and the facts on the railroad opened my eyes to some things I hadn't thought of befor. I enjoyed the antics of a large family and the characters were easy to empathized with. I would have liked the charaters to have more christian depth, but I'm hopeful that Carolina will have a personal relationship to God in the next book of this series.
