Overview
In 1849 they came to California from around the world ...Some came for the gold. Some came for the adventure. Some came to escape their past. But they all came with dreams...And their lives were forever changed. Hannah Runyon, from Boston's Beacon Hill, lost her fiancé but found her true love. Delfina Austen pined for her lost lover but saved her most important possession. Miette climbs her way to respectability but must fight for her reputation. Their Golden Dreams follows the lives of men and women thrown together in the rough and tumble days of the gold diggings in California. Most didn't stay long and when they left - richer or poorer than when they came - they started exciting new lives you won't want to miss. Their Golden Dreams is the third novel in Willard Thompson's Chronicles of California series. In each novel, Thompson seamlessly layers accurate California history with adventurous romantic plots and characters so real you live their lives with them. Dream Helper, A novel of Early California, and Delfina's Gold are other novels in the Chronicles series.
