My Thoughts
Sally Bingham has always been interested in the Amish and has recently been corresponding online with an Amish girl, Lilly Zook. So without informing her father or fiance Sally decided to to visit Lilly's Amish community and stay at the local Bed and Breakfast. When she arrives she is unable to stay at the Bed & Breakfast and is invited to stay with a local Amish family. This leads to a chain of events Sally had not expected. For some reason she feels right at home with the Zook family and their community. She even helps out or shall we say is working at a local business.
An Amish man, Armin works for the Zook family and lives on their property. He has family he could live with but is more comfortable working and staying on the Zook.s property. He finds himself attracted to the new boarder and decides to ask her on a date of sorts.
I founds myself drawn into the mystery and romance of this story. I have enjoyed reading this series and this new addition did not disappoint me. Their is so much I would like to tell you about the book but then the element of surprise would be lost. I felt the desperate need of Sally to not only find her roll in life but to also grow in her relationship with God. Then there is Armin trying to find his place within his own family and community.
The author gives God the biggest roll in this book as he leads the characters on the path he has planned for each and every one of them.
I highly recommend this book.
I rated this book a 5 out of 5.
Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from Litfuse Publicity Group/David C. Cook/Netgalley for an honest review.
