On My Wishlist is a Meme hosted by Book Chick City.
On
My Wishlist is a weekly meme that allows us to share the books we
haven't bought yet but are waiting to be bought and devoured. If you are
anything like me then your wishlist is getting longer by the day! If
you would like to take part and have your own 'On My Wishlist' post then
you can more info here. (This post was inspired by the fab In My Mailbox by Kristi at The Story Siren)
My
on My Wishlist includes books that are older and already out, or brand
new. Today I am bringing you four books that I am dying to read and get
for my book shelves.
So
lets see what we have here this week.. I well update when I get these
books. There are so many that I decided to narrow it sown to just four
this week.! 
An amazing story of faith
amidst the horrors of the Holocaust, The Hiding Place has a
richly-deserved place among the "Christian classics." In this
autobiographical account, Corrie ten Boom tells of her family's attempt
to save Dutch Jews from a Nazi roundup - until their efforts were
discovered and the entire family sent to a concentration camp. Her
father and sister would die in captivity, but Corrie would survive to
write, preach, and personally share the story of God's love and
forgiveness - even to her former Nazi captors! Now in a deluxe
collector's edition, this unabridged classic will thrill readers of all
ages.

Four brides. One Dress.
A tale of faith, redemption, and timeless love.
Charlotte owns a chic Birmingham bridal boutique. Dressing brides for their big day is her gift . . . and her passion. But with her own wedding day approaching, why can't she find the perfect dress...or feel certain she should marry Tim?
Then Charlotte discovers a vintage dress in a battered trunk at an estate sale. It looks brand-new-shimmering with pearls and satin, hand-stitched and timeless in its design. But where did it come from? Who wore it? Who welded the lock shut and tucked the dog tags in that little sachet? Who left it in the basement for a ten-year-old girl? And what about the mysterious man in the purple vest who insists the dress had been "redeemed."
Charlotte's search for the gown's history-and its new bride-begins as a distraction from her sputtering love life. But it takes on a life of its own as she comes to know the women who have worn the dress. Emily from 1912. Mary Grace from 1939. Hillary from 1968. Each with her own story of promise, pain, and destiny. And each with something unique to share. For woven within the threads of the beautiful hundred-year-old gown is the truth about Charlotte's heritage, the power of courage and faith, and the timeless beauty of finding true love.
"The story of four loveable women, miraculously bound by one gown, whose lives span a century . . . will take your breath away." -Beth Webb Hart, bestselling author of "Love, Charleston"
