About the book:
A thrilling tale of two women longing to follow God's leading, make the most of second chances, and find true love at last
Virginia, 1864
Therese Jennings cannot abide the thought of owning slaves. When her widowed mother inherits a plantation, Therese flees to Civil War Richmond, where she works as a governess by day and tends to wounded soldiers at night. But when trouble befalls her family, can she reconcile her obligations with her beliefs? And will love-whether with an old beau or a handsome new suitor-ever fit in her broken world?
Virginia, present day
Nicole Talbot's life is back on track after years of substance abuse. Home from college for the summer, she's finally ready to share a shocking secret, one that raises new questions about a traumatic childhood experience. But when facts she uncovers cast doubt on her family's legacy, she must risk all that she's gained-her fresh start, her family's trust, and her growing relationship with a new man-to unlock the secrets of the past.

My Review:
"My Daughter's Legacy" is the third book in the Cousins of the Dove series and the authors have once again done an incredible job of intertwining two storylines and two characters' lives together. One part is set in the Civil War era while the other is present day. Therese does not believe in the Southern mindset of slavery, and sets out to live her life following her beliefs. Nicole is a recovering addict and is back home and ready to share something that she has been holding onto, but she is not prepared for what else comes to light. As each of these women struggle to overcome issues in their lives and follow their own hearts and beliefs, other twists and turns are tied in resulting in a suspenseful and satisfying read. Leslie and Mindy prove that they are a great team as this has been a great series and I love how the two storylines are tied together. At first, I was unsure how they were both going to meld together, but they do. Both women are strong characters and easy to connect with. I love the suspense tied in along with the family drama and personal issues.
