The first scent of blooming flowers, fresh green fields, and invigorating days of sunshine. A Southern Maryland Amish spring bursts with hope, bright promise--and a practical young widow's chance to try love anew...
With two lively daughters, an active newborn, and a huge farm to tend, Lena Troyer has no time for impossible what-ifs. She just can't let herself be distracted by Samuel Mast's unexpected return. Even though her childhood sweetheart became the man she longed to marry, Samuel never saw or wrote Lena again after his family abruptly moved away. Now a widow, Lena is determined to keep Samuel's helpful ways and irresistible good humor at arm's length--no matter how often he's there when she needs him most...
A restless father with a shameful secret was the reason Samuel's many letters never got to Lena. And it's why Samuel can't bring himself to tell Lena the truth--though he's doing everything he can to regain her trust and prove he's worthy of the resourceful woman she's become. But as a rival for his affections complicates matters, Samuel and Lena must somehow put the past to rest--and believe that faith, honesty, and rekindled love will be more than enough to finally build a family together...
My thoughts:
I loved everything about
this sweet story and it’s my favorite in this series by Ms. Simpson. Lena Troyer
and her adorable children are impossible not to love. Samuel Mast is pretty special, too and I
loved the time they spent together. He’s the kind of person you would want in your
life, even though Lena was hesitant to let him close to her and I can’t say I
blamed her given their past.
Filled with
memorable characters, warmth and some pretty funny moments when the young ladies
in the community try to win Samuel’s heart, this is a wonderful story. This heartwarming, well-paced novel held my attention
from beginning to end.
I voluntarily
reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
