My Review
I really enjoyed this read, and am thrilled there will be more books coming in this series.
This is a faith based read, and makes you realize that being Amish really doesn't insulate you from all problems!
We are given some sweet romance, and we meet head on problems of being a farmer, and having a Vet that is Amish? We also see how hard it is for some family member to be free of the stigma of others in their family.
The author does give us a look at a dysfunctional family, and how bad things got for them, but through faith we meet one whom struggles, but seems to be winning the fight.
This book was a page turner for answers, surprises yes, but a look a different look at the plain life, and with difference, we are all people with our own problems!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
