When Amish Rebecca Kauffman gains custody of her English nieces, blended family takes on a whole new meaning. Rebecca Kauffman s tranquil Old Order Amish life is transformed when she suddenly becomes guardian to her two teenage nieces after her English sister and brother-in-law are killed in an automobile accident. Instant motherhood, after years of unsuccessful attempts to conceive a child of her own, is both a joy and a heartache. Rebecca struggles to give the teenage girls the guidance they need as well as fulfill her duties to Daniel as an Amish wife. Rebellious Jessica is resistant to Amish ways and constantly in trouble with the community. Younger sister Lindsay is caught in the middle, and the strain between Rebecca and Daniel mounts as Jessica s rebellion escalates. Instead of the beautiful family life she dreamed of creating for her nieces, Rebecca is frustrated by her new role and begins to question her place in the Amish community, her marriage, and her faith in God. Will she be able to reconcile differences in her home or will the clash of cultures tear her world apart?"

Thoroughly enjoyed the characters and story. A romantic Amish story with some fun twists and great recipes tied in. Delightful read. Fabulous on audio, unless you want to cook the recipes then I suggest print.

Audio book as we head to our second camping trip of the season. A bit of a break from non fiction this summer - reading Amish fiction, historical fiction, and other sweet stories. When I close the covers of these books I often feel like I have made a new friend.

Laura317 I've not read this author before. Is she good? 8y
InspirationClothesline @Laura317 loved the book and already finished the second and onto the third in the series. Her newest book is "the courtship basket" which is the second in a series. Will read those too. Live on audio but print I'd better if you hope to use the recipes! 8y
