Review
I received an eARC copy of this book from the publisher. Here is my honest review.
I have always enjoyed reading stories set in the Amish lifestyle, so I was sure I would enjoy this one. I typically choose books to read based on the title and/or cover. This means that a book is usually a complete surprise when I open it; this book had two very pleasant surprises inside! First, the main character has raised and competitively shows Corgis. We have two corgis and so it was such a treat to see this breed featured in the story. It's just a little detail, but brought extra smiles as I read. The second surprise is the premise for this book. Sally is not Amish but ends up visiting the area and staying with the family. This is the first book that I have read in this sub-genre where the two characters that are falling in love are not both Amish. I think it is probably rare for someone to join the Amish faith as an adult and that was a surprising twist. Lloyd did a great job with this story!
I didn't realize until writing my review that this was the final book in a series. Very well done as it can be read as a stand-alone.
