Review: When Hope Blossoms by Kim Vogel Sawyer


About the Book:

But her new neighbor, Tim Roper, is not pleased to have an Old Order Mennonite family living next to his apple orchard.

My Review:
 This book begins on a some what happy note. A new beginning of sorts. Amy Knackstedt and her three children Bekah, Parker, and Adrianna move to Kansas in the hopes of starting over. Prior to this Amy lost her beloved husband Gabe in a terrible accident. Now a single mom to her children, Amy has to find ways of providing for them and with that thought she also wants to begin anew. While unpacking, the youngest children decide to go exploring and wander too far from home. And accidentally meet their new neighbor, Mr. Tim Roper. Tim Roper is a man that has willingly left his faith and has also shared in the same feeling of loss as Amy and her children have. As things between this little family and Mr. Roper develop something happens to disrupt it all. It is interesting to see what finally happens in the end. Two willing and able adults that are afraid to take the next step.
