Willkumm to the lush and lavish Amish country where Wanda Brunstetter’s new romantic series, Indiana Cousins, begins with A Cousin’s Promise. Loraine Miller finds herself torn between the love of two good men – Wayne Lambright who, crippled after a tragic accident, feels himself unworthy of her love; and Jake Beechy who, after having abandoned her to explore the English world, returns to renew their courtship. To which man will she pledge her love and loyalty – for better or worse, until death they do part?

My Review:  I love this book.  Anything written by Wanda Brunstetter is a safe bet.  As well as being great books for adults, I would be very comfortable giving her books to young girls – grade 8 and above.  Mrs. Brunstetter’s books are clean and have an engaging story line, although somewhat predictable in places. A bonus is learning about Amish cultures in different parts of the country.  This series is written about the Amish in Indiana.  

The main character, Lorraine, is someone I wish I could be like.  The other characters are believable and I  would love to have them as friends.  The story is probably something that could happen, and the characters reactions are believable.  The plot includes suspense, romance, and creates some feelings of frustration with the reader for the characters.  Mrs. Brunstetter creates a warm community sense in her books, including this book.  I look forward to reading the rest of the books in this series.
