My Thought
Life on a Texas horse farm is hard for Abigail Barker especially since her mothers death. Her father's verbal and emotional abuse towards Abby gets worse as time goes by. Her new horse has been injured adding to her father's long list of complaints. How much more can she endure? Thanks to an Amish-man, Mose Fisher coming to her aide she would not have been able to manage.
Since walking out on the horse farm and her father she suspects he is sick and worries he will not have anyone to care for him. She struggles with why she should care after the way he had treated her? She prays to God for Him to guide her.
What a contrast this must have been for Abby going from feeling unloved and unappreciated to being overwhelmed with the love and protection of the Amish. Might she be able to build a new life among the Amish and possibly with Mose Fisher?
Book three in the Touch of Grace series is a beautiful love story. The author created the character of Abby as being as broken in heart and soul as the new horse Abby cared for so dearly. Then she creates the character of Mose as no doubt being sent by God to rescue Abby, bringing her closer to God and the Amish community where she was meant to be. This story has suspense, danger, romance, trials, tribulation and reconciliation. I can't wait to read more from this author. What a loving and tender heart this author Beth Shriver must have, she is a blessing to her readers.
I highly recommend this book.
I rated this book a 5 out of 5.
