Capable and optimistic
Molly Zook has a slight issue with control: She doesn't like giving it
up. So she's chafing against her mother's wish that, to save the family
farm, she marry Mervin Mosier--especially after she meets Leon Fisher.
He's from Montana but is working in Molly's district, training horses at
a nearby ranch. He is tall and muscular, with a confident demeanor.
Molly has never met anyone like him, and he seems to feel the same about
her.
Determined to let nothing get between them, Molly decides
the best course of action is to get Mervin to fall back in love with her
best friend, Hannah. Molly organizes a weekend camping trip hoping to
bring them together, but things quickly go awry and it seems Leon and
Hannah might be falling for each other instead. Will Molly keep
struggling to control everyone and everything around her? Or will she
learn to let God handle the twists and turns of her life?

My Review:
This is the third book in this series that I have read, and greatly enjoyed.
This
is Molly Zooks story, who has recently lost her Dad. She is now trying
to save their home and farm. Her Mom has a solution, she has picked out a
husband for Molly, and he has some land that will help. Yeah right, but
Molly has always obeyed her parents, this is asking a lot. As she tries
to find a plan to work, she meets someone who she is smitten with.
Can
Molly reject the one her Mother wants for her? Or will she follow her
heart? When you think you know just the way this story is going to
unfold, guess again.
Now Molly is a control freak...she has to have
things done right, and the way she wants it! We travel with the Amish
gang or Youngies and go camping...oh fun!! Molly has to have it done her
way, she has a chart...listen all we need this and this. Sound like
fun?
Through all we see people who live their faith, and are there
for one another, in good, and hard times. We celebrate weddings, and
births, and then the loss of loved ones, and illnesses. I loved this
visit and hope for more!!
I received this book through Bethany House Publishers, and was not required to give a positive review.
