Book Description: In an area of Pennsylvania called The Big Valley, a uniquely blended Amish community thrives in which 3 distinct groups of Amish identify themselves by the colors of their buggy’s top—white, black, or yellow. Join New York Times Bestselling Author Wanda E. Brunstetter, her daughter-in-law, and granddaughter in experiencing the stories of three young women who search for faith and love within this special place. Deanna is a widow who sees her second chance of love slipping away. Rose Mary is at a point in life where she must choose the path of her faith and the right man to walk with her on it. Leila is burdened with family responsibilities and wonders when she will ever start a family of her own.
My Thoughts: Three books in one. I love, love this Pennsylvania Amish book.
Three complete short stories all about the Amish and how they live life. Also each short story is about a different group of Amish people.
It was so interesting to read how the different groups-- group, black group and yellow group-- live and view life. One group is quite strict and, yet, another group is fairly lenient in the way they view life.
The one thing that was constant among the three different groups was their love for God.
The first story is about a widow who has a down syndrome son and an ailing father. She has her hands full. But there is also a man who has loved her for all his life and she doesn't know it. A tragic story full of love.
The second story is about a sweet young lady who can't decide if she wants to go with an Amish guy who wants to be Englisch or an Englisch guy whom she really likes. Choices, choices that will affect her life.
In the last short story two different people from the colored groups yellow and black meet at a singing but can two different colors o.so.different really get together? Or will the couple have to stay in the group they live in?
Such an interesting read.
