Her
Mother's Hope and Her Daughter's Dream
by Francine Rivers comprise a two-book series, called “Marta’s Legacy.”
If
family dynamics interest you I highly recommend reading these books. They mostly
focus on mother-daughter relationships spanning four generations.
These
books show how a misunderstanding can cause a huge rift in a family. They also
show the importance of open communication. The women of these books have the
struggles all mothers share. They do everything they can for their children out
of love even if their children don't see it.
After
years of her mother and grandmother barely speaking to each other, May Flower
Dawn finally brings them together so everyone can learn to get along before her
baby comes.
Her
mother, Carolyn, continues the journey of fixing relationships by going to
Switzerland. She visits places her Oma lived when she was a child. She finds
exactly what her mother needs to prove her mother's love.
