In
this touching Amish romance, a brokenhearted woman and a steadfast man
discover that the safest place to weather tragedy is in each other’s
arms.
After the murder of both her parents, Emma
Hochstedler returns to the small community of Johns Mill, hoping to
resume her quiet existence. Reclaiming her place proves harder than
expected—especially now that a movie is being made about her family’s
loss. But then, an old friend offers her a lifeline that gives her new
purpose.
Amish builder Samuel Christner is the biggest—and the
strongest—man in town. In fact, the gentle giant has only one
weakness—Emma. Even though she broke his heart, he won’t let his
childhood sweetheart face her troubles alone. He hires Emma as a nurse
for his elderly aunt…and finds himself falling for her all over again.
But
while romance blooms, storm clouds gather. And when darkness falls, it
will take all Sam’s strength—and all their love—to see them through.

My Review
What a great read, just as good as the first in this series! Now the
author has done a great job of getting you up to date so you know
basically what happened in the first book, but you will want to pick it
up too, you won’t regret it!
In this second book, Trevor is still
missing, Caleb has left, and the rest of the Hochstedler family is still
picking up the pieces! We are with Emma as she lives her faith as an
Amish woman, and we see her put to the test with Sam’s Aunt Ruth!
We
are given a story rich with family, forgiveness, and throw in a bit of
sweet romance and you have a real page turner. I loved that we are
gifted with an epilogue!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Berkley, and was not required to give a positive review.
