Publisher Description:
A modern new century brings a young Amish woman an unexpected new life—and a chance to discover love’s true way home…
Ohio, 1899.
Soft-spoken midwife Becca Yost lived by her Amish faith’s strict rules—until her fiancé jilted her before their entire community. She’s never been away from home, but the bustling Englischer town of Massillon, Ohio, is a welcome unexpected refuge. Especially when she goes to work for Dr. Matt Carrington, who shares her passion for healing those in need. His outgoing spirit and gentle strength show Becca a surprising new world of choices—and irresistible love. But there is one formidable obstacle: Matt’s wealthy mother is determined her son will marry a society woman.
With her newfound resolve challenged, Becca decides that she and Matt must not be destined for each other after all. She accepts that she will have to forge a life alone—until a wrenching crisis and
life-changing revelations teach her that true faith lies in all things, especially impossible second
chances. . .

My Review:
I have enjoyed the all the books in this series, but I think this one is my favorite. This is a combination Amish/historical romance that has just a touch of adventure/suspense.
I loved the characters of Becca and Ruth. These two sisters made the difficult decision to leave their Amish community and become Englisch, but they remained steadfast in their love of God and were committed to living a life pleasing to him. Ruth, as a young widow, is hoping that love will come her way again. Becca was jilted by her fiancé on her wedding day, and she has come to live with Ruth to get a new start. Both sisters each find love again, but for Becca, the road to marrying Matt is anything but smooth. I admired the way Becca consistently stepped back and tried to do the right thing. She shows her courageous side, too, and that added action/adventure to the story.
This is a wonderful series that readers of Amish fiction will enjoy. This book is easily read as a stand-alone, even though it comes later in the series.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
