Back Cover Copy:
Sarah Esh’s peaceful life turns upside down one afternoon when a parachutist crash-lands on her family’s farm. The stranger insists his life is in danger and begs her to keep his presence secret. Sarah’s promise tangles her in a web of deceit that endangers innocent people, ruins her best friend’s reputation, and tears apart the Amish
community. After she discovers the man’s true purpose, Sarah must confess her mistake and repair the damage she’s done. But how can she admit the truth to Jacob Zook knowing it will end their relationship?
Although he was jilted by Sarah’s older sister, Jakob finds himself attracted to Sarah’s kindness and honesty. Her innocence and gentle spirit encourage him to open his heart. Then he discovers the deep secrets Sarah’s been hiding—secrets that destroyed his family and now threaten their love.
My Review:
I enjoyed reading this book about the Esh family, and Sarah is my favorite of the sisters. She’s the youngest sister and sometimes feels overlooked. She’s sweet and kind, almost to a fault. It’s her desire to help others that leads to a series of complications that leaves Sarah perplexed about knowing the right thing to do. She makes mistakes, but it’s done out of love and concern. It’s no wonder that everyone loves Sarah and depend on her for advice and help.
My other favorite character in this book was Sarah’s grandmother. Mammi took on the challenge of reforming her two unexpected visitors, and I loved the scenes when she was telling Roger and Herman just how things were going to be done in her house. Sarah and Mammi made a good team, and I’d love to see Mammi again in another book.
This is another heart-touching story from Rachel Good and now one of my favorites. If you are a fan of Amish fiction, don’t miss this one.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
