Chasing Dreams on Oak Tree Lane by R.A. Hutchins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Dreams are beautiful. They add taste to our lives. But is it worth it to pursue them at all costs?

Meg and Josh have different answers to this question. Life has taught them a few harsh lessons, but they both have their own reasons not to give up. It might seem they are similar, but it’s their attitude to chasing dreams that makes them polar opposites.

Meg has just dived head-first into her dream. She moved to Lower Oakley, the town that's keeping all her cherished childhood memories. She believes that opening her art shop here will make her happy and chase away the demons of her past.

Josh has learned the hard way that dreams can lead to a disaster that cannot be undone. He has no other choice than to live with the consequences of her wife’s reckless chase after her dreams. For him, following one’s dream is almost taboo. Yet, having denied himself to chase his own dream, he is determined to give his little daughter all the opportunities to follow hers.

Meg and Josh meet at the worst possible moment when falling in love and starting a new relationship are the last things on their minds. Besides, Meg’s determination to fulfil her dream is a huge stop sign for Josh. He thinks that such obsession can’t lead to anything good.

“Chasing Dreams on Oak Tree LaneChasing Dreams on Oak Tree Lane” by R.A. Hutchins is a heart-warming story of two people overcoming the prejudices their life lessons have led them to adopt.

Having read other romance novels by this author, I was eager to read more. I’ve come to appreciate R.A. Hutchins’s ability to wrap the reader in the knot of emotions of the characters and feel what they’re going through.

I recommend this book to all romance book lovers who appreciate reading about people who, despite struggling with all kinds of trauma, keep the light of hope in their hearts.
