My Review:
This book is a perfect mix of English and Amish lives. If you are someone that isn't quite sure about Amish fiction I suggest reading this book. This story gives you the perfect perception from an English point of view. I really enjoyed it. I can read this and enjoy it at 40 years of age but I really think my 20 year old daughter could too. Great story and great characters too! This is book one in the Lancaster Discoveries series.
Angela and Rose are your typical English sisters, they have a very strained relationship. For one, their mother just passed away, one has a strained marriage while the other longs to be married. It doesn't take very long to see why their relationship is the way that it is. The two of them both see that they need to find a way to reconnect but, how? Then a break comes in the way of a letter from their Amish aunt, Aunt Silvia. So the sisters decide to look at this visit as a vacation to reconnect, and that they do.
They start to see that they may actually like each other a tad but many things start coming up in their family that deserves a little digging into. Things start changing for both of the sisters. Hopefully, God can fix the issues they both have with life and with each other and hopefully Aunt Silvia will be the way this all comes together.
