Through the Valley (The Amish of Shepherd's Hill) by Patricia Johns

 

Miri Schrock never expected to inherit anything after months of caring for Old Tom Yoder, so upon his passing, she's stunned to learn he's left her everything. But Tom's family is equally shocked, and Miri is not sure she can rightfully accept an inheritance that clearly belongs to Tom's grandsons.

Moses Yoder thought he knew his grandfather, but his decision to leave the Lancaster County family farm to Miri has Moses questioning everything. Now he's caught between his family's demands that Miri surrender what's rightfully theirs and his own growing romantic attraction toward her. As Moses and Miri are drawn together, they must navigate family tensions, yet discovering the truth behind the inheritance may change everything they thought they knew about love, family, and God's plan for their future.

My Review

 

have been looking forward to this book, and it sure did not disappoint.
I loved being back with Tabitha, the Amish vet, and Jonas, but this relationship can go nowhere, because of her divorce. As this book starts Jonas has gone looking for a bride, no!
There is a big theme of forgiveness here, both for Tabitha and the Yoder's, but can they?
This is also Mimi's and Moses story, with Mimi wanting to be out doing men's work, and not being a typical Amish woman, and yes, Mimi and Tabitha are related!
This story has so many twists and turns, and just when you think questions are answered, no, and we are in for big surprises.
I loved the epilogue, only thing wrong was I hate for this series to end!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
