The Belle Meade Plantation Collection: To Whisper Her Name, To Win Her Favor, To Wager Her Heart, To Mend a Dream
Set during the Civil War at Nashville's historic Belle Meade Plantation, Tamera Alexander portrays stories about enslavement and freedom, arrogance and humility, and the power of love to heal even the deepest of wounds.
To Whisper Her Name
As Ridley Cooper seeks to make peace within himself for "betraying" the South he loved, Olivia Aberdeen is determined to never be betrayed again. To Whisper Her Name follows the journey of two wounded people and one fragile nation longing to find healing.
To Win Her Favor
A gifted rider in a world where ladies never race, Maggie Linden is determined that her horse will become a champion. But the one man who could help her--an Irishman far from home named Cullen McGrath--has vowed to stay away from thoroughbred racing for the rest of his life.
To Wager Her Heart
In the new reality of the post-Civil War South a railroad man and a Southern Belle-turned teacher must find a way to work together to achieve their dreams. To Wager Her Heart is a sweeping Southern love story about a nation trying to heal and the courage of a man and woman to see themselves for who they truly are--and can be--together.
To Mend a Dream
Extending her beloved series in this sweet novella, Tamera Alexander offers readers the story of well-known character Savannah Darby, who would do almost anything to revisit her family home. When the new owner, Aidan Bedford, decides to redecorate his new house for his fiance, Savannah jumps at the opportunity.

I am giving it three starts because I really liked the first book. However I didn't finish the whole series due to the sexual content in book 2. I personally felt that the author went to far in her love scenes and she had more than one of them in the second book. While the characters were married I have read so many other sweet love stories by other Christian authors that capture the beauty of what God intends for love and marriage without going into unnecessary detail. I am always really sad and disappointed when a Christian author feels the need to write detailed love scenes.

Oh my goodness! I LOVE this collection!
Tamera has a way of speaking to my heart and problems thru her writing. This series has been awesome for me to read during a tough time in my life, encouraging me to continue in God's love and to continue cherishing the gift of family that I have, even when times get tough! I couldn't put it down.

Incredibly enjoyable
I became a fan of Tamera Alexander after I read the first book in her Belmont series. as a result I was expecting great things from this series and it didn’t disappoint. Well done Tamera. Looking forward to reading the next series.

Captivating
All the characters in these novels are captivating and I wanted to follow all their stories. Many loose ends I would like followed up. I did not want it to be done.
