A Home for Hannah

Amy Lillard

Zebra Publishing, 337 pages

Published February 27, 2018

Description from Amazon.com:

“Fifteen years. That’s how long it’s been since Hannah McLean set foot in the Amish community where she was raised. Through it all her heart has never forgotten Pontotoc—or Aaron Zook, her first love. Now widowed, and left with little more than her hurting teenager and her prayers, she returns home, even knowing she and her son may be turned away.

When Aaron learns Hannah has returned, he nearly falls to his knees. He’s a strong man, but lately the care of his three motherless children and family land have been more than he can handle. Now providence has delivered the first woman he loved, and with her, the rush of feelings they once shared. But will his simple, removed way of life leave Hannah longing for something more, or can they begin anew, finding a new way forward together?”

My Review:

I enjoyed this “going home again” story by Amy Lillard. The storyline kept my interest as the characters struggled with resolving their conflicts. I liked the fact that the author respected Amish beliefs and allowed them to keep their integrity, but clearly showed their love for others through a somewhat difficult situation. I believe this is the first book of a new series, and I look forward to reading more about this community.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher to review.  I was not required to give a positive review.  This is my honest opinion of the book.
