My Thoughts: Four great Amish authors and four wonderful stories about Amish life.
The first story Their True Home by Amy Clipston has to do with the reunion of children all grown up meeting again. When Marlene Bawell's family has to move back to Bird In Hand, it's been ten years, and she is all grown up and so is the boy, Rudy, whom she had a crush on in elementary school. Love and a sweet relationship by one of my favorite authors.
A Reunion of Hearts by Beth Wiseman is about love lost. Ruth and Gideon were married but when circumstances beyond their control and grief has taken a toll on their marriage. Unable to get past their grief but, also, unable to dissolve their marriage they leave their families and Amish faith to find two different paths in life. So, when they are each invited to a family reunion they both believe that the other will not be there. AHA! Can their grief be mended?
A Chance to Remember by Kathleen Fuller is a fun read. A matchmaker in her eighties is surprised when a man from her past arrives in her small town. Can a matchmaker take a chance on love so late in life?
Mended Hearts by Kelly Irvin pens a somewhat sad tale of a young girls who makes an unwise decision. Even though the community all say they have forgiven her, she constantly feels the eyes of ht people are upon her as she and her daughter go throughout the community. Can love over come obstacles?
Four great short stories in one book!
And all such fantastic stories.
