Praise for Sisters of Heart and Snow

“As Rachel and Drew overcome their past contentious relationship to unite in a front to protect their mother, the heroic exploits of this honored figure in Japanese history inspire and imbue them with the fortitude to confront their father’s overpowering ways. Spanning centuries, Dilloway’s intricate, multigenerational saga of repressive family dynamics offers a timeless look at the bonds of sisterhood.” —Booklist
 
“The ways in which Rachel and Drew learn from Tomoe and Yamabuki and apply those lessons to their own lives are unexpected and ultimately satisfying. In this enjoyable novel, imperfect and at times unlikable women become lovable.” —Kirkus Reviews
 
“A skillfully woven tale where the lore of a twelfth-century female samurai helps two present-day sisters release the past and heal their fractured lives. Vivid, detailed, and historically fascinating.” —Beth Hoffman, New York Times–bestselling author of Looking for Me
 
“I deeply admire Margaret Dilloway’s deftness in braiding together past and present, but what I love best about this book is that every relationship rings true, particularly the complicated bonds of sisterhood. As Drew and Rachel struggle toward each other, butting heads, wrestling with old jealousies, discovering deep reservoirs of love, I kept thinking: ‘Yes! That’s it. That’s exactly how it is.’” —Marisa de los Santos, New York Times–bestselling author of Love Walked In and Belong to Me
