This wonderful novella was an action packed story. Not a dull moment. I had a hard time putting it down. It's the story of Clive, a young Amish man who causes an accident with his buggy and a young expectant woman in an automobile. And so the story begins. It is a fast paced story with lots of Christian values expressed. It was a sweet story with teaching moments as Clive takes care of the woman who was injured and is expecting a child. Against the rules of his Amish community, he cares for this woman and they become close. I loved seeing familiar characters in the story who are also caring but concerned about breaking the rules as they all work through things with God's love and guidance.
The book is good and I am sure others will also enjoy it as well. I highly recommend it. I was given an arc. All thoughts and opinions are my own.… (mehr)

Another wonderful story by this author. I am so lucky to be able to read these stories which always have an important Christian message. Brighton is English and Bethany is an Amish young woman. As they meet and get to know one another a bond grows between them, yet they both understand the realization of the problems this relationship will bring to Bethany especially. As Brighton heads to college, problems at home return him to his home to help family. As Bethany learns to understand the Bible teachings, and Jesus' atoning love for us, she grows spiritually. But she knows what she is doing and learning about will not be accepted well by her parents.
It's a touching and sweet story that I totally enjoyed reading. I am sure you will as well. I received a complimentary copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.… (mehr)

This was a truly sweet romance. It was a beautiful story of love and forgiveness and is a wonderful book for a happy start to the Christmas Season. The characters are so likeable and pleasant to read about and even though there may be some conflicts, it is good to see God's plan coming to fruition for them. I found this a light read that will bring a smile and that "feel-good" feeling that I love after reading a good book.

Thank you so much Jennifer Spredemann for choosing me to be one of those able to read the ARC of this novella. I had never read The Scarlett Letter but even though I know it wasn't necessary to read this book it is one I think I have to read. This was a different direction for Jennifer as it was told in first person. I loved the power that this little book punched. So much in such a short story shows how excellent the writing was. I had figured out things before the end but it was lovely read and realize I was right. Big happy smile on my face. The characters was so wonderful that I hope this won't be the last time that we come across them. This strong story is one not to be missed by Jennifer Spredemann fans. If you have not read this author before, this would be a good one to read. I am excited to see what Jennifer has in store for us next.… (mehr)
