My Review:
I absolutely loved this book and the beautiful, heart touching storyline. The main character, Bethel Mast, gives this book both heart and hope. Bethel has faced some difficult, unfair situations in her life. She hopes that her marriage of convenience to Aaron Bontrager will give her a life of peace and a place to belong. Aaron is a widower with three young children who desperately need help and stability in the home. Aaron goes into the marriage with Bethel with the intentions of treating her in a kind, respectful manner. Neither of them is expecting any more than that from this marriage, but love has a way of slowly knitting two hearts together. The children in this story are adorable and add some extra depth to the book. If you love Amish fiction, don’t miss this one!
