**Disclaimer** I was gifted this brilliant work of art by the author in exchange for an honest review.

Oh my goodness! Christine Nolfi just made it to my Top Author Shelf. This book was absolutely amazing…

This book touched my heart in a way that few books have ever done! I fell in love with every character in this book and while reading the book shed a whole bunch of tears. Christine Nolfi makes the reader feel as though they are part of the story and you root for everyone to win. Even the crazy couple from Baltimore. (There was a point that I hated them but soon realized they just loved Dillon as much as the rest of the characters).

Annie was amazing she was strong and what stood out to me was her loyalty to wrong her rights and to do the right thing. Michael was loveable and I adored him every step of the way. I want to say that I am a fan and will be picking up more of Nolfi’s work in the future. Amazing and heartwarming book!

I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway, this in no way affects my review of this book. I really loved this book. Ms. Nolfi has captured the feelings that you have when you discover your drug addicted sister is dead and she leaves behind a small boy. We see and feel the trauma Ann goes through trying to do what is right for her new little one, story is complicated by a love interest and another couple that are fighting for custody. I felt like Ms. Nolfi was telling my story. The characters are realistic and the plot is true to life. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great book to read. ( )

Christine Nolfi has done it again. The Dream You Make is a wonderful story.
Anne is trying to adopt her nephew, Dillon, after her sister is murdered. Her father died and she is trying to keep his Greenhouse running and has to get another job to make ends meet. She has to prove that she is capable of raising Dillon or she could lose him to a couple in Baltimore, that knew him before her sister was murdered. They are doing everything in their power to get him and have the money to do just that and Anne would never see him again.
Anne gets the second job as a computer specialist working for Michael Rowe who owes one of the most powerful companies around. When Anne gets the job things start to heat up between her and Michael.
But Anne does not tell him anything about her private life, especially Dillon and Michael has secrets of his own which of course cause them to have big problems in their private and work lives.
Will Anne win custody of the nephew she considers her son and loves more than life itself? Will Michael get over his past losses and give in to the feelings he has for Anne and Dillon? Will they work things out and have the love that they all need and want so bad? Or will the England's get custody of Dillon and keep him from Anne forever? You will have to read this book to find out. I can't give anything away. But will say this book is a wonderfully done story and kept me wanting to find out what was going to happen from the first page. I loved it and thought it was a definite 5 star story. If you love a good clean love story with lots of twists and turns and up and downs you have to read this one. Christine has a way of telling a story that keeps you wanting more...
