An unplanned pregnancy. An absent father. Can love really endure all things?
Danielle Kent is anything but Amish. But as destiny would have it, she has fallen in love with an Amish man.
Now she’s 18, pregnant, and hopeful that the child’s Amish father—Matthew Lapp—will do the right thing and marry her. She knows Matthew plans to leave his Colorado settlement for a life in the Englisch world. But that plan never included a baby.
When Matthew walks away from her and their unborn child, she has nowhere to turn. Her unlikely friendship with Levi offers some comfort—yet they have so little in common. This wasn’t the plan she had for her life, and she has never felt so alone. She doesn’t want to be pregnant. Doesn’t want to be Amish. Doesn’t want to trust God.
And yet.
God has plans beyond what her mind can imagine . . . loving plans to show a lost young woman that His love never fails but endures forever.
My Comments: Beth Wiseman does it again! This is a fabulous Amish fiction book! It must be a challenge for the authors of Amish fiction to find something new to write about, but I would say this is somewhat different. We have a relationship between a non-Amish and an Amish. We have a wonderfully awesome young Amish man who does the honorable thing and follows what he feels God is telling him to do – marry a pregnant (not his baby) non-Amish woman who happens to be his best friend. His parents totally disagree and when he marries this girl (Danielle), he will lose his chance to join the Amish church. Beth’s books always tend to engage me and my emotions. I even feel myself becoming frustrated! I loved it! As long as Beth keeps writing, I will read her books!
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
