A Heart Set Free by Amy Clipston

 

When Renee Mast inherits her grandmother’s farm in Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania, she is torn about what to do. Years ago, her father cut all ties with his mother and their Amish roots. But with both her daed and mammi gone, Renee is determined to uncover the truth about why. She feels Gott urging her to return, but she never expected to face so many unanswered questions—or the growing danger that threatens to drive her away. It seems someone in town wants to keep the past buried.

Jerome Graber has spent years carrying the guilt of a buggy accident that ended in tragedy. He buries his pain in work by running Martha Mast’s farm to atone for his mistakes. The daily routine of caring for crops and animals makes him feel safe—until Renee arrives, putting everything at risk. If she sells the farm, he loses not only his livelihood but also the surprising connection that’s growing between them.

When the threats against Renee escalate, she and Jerome must rely on their faith—and their hearts—to find the courage to embrace the future Gott has intended for them all along.

My Review

 This is a quick enjoyable read.

This young women would like answers, why did they leave, and why no contact?
Answers come, but the journey is soon filled with danger? Why?
