More
settled in her heart than ever before, Rhoda Byler feels a newfound
confidence living in the Old Order Amish settlement she helped establish
in Orchard Bend, Maine. Time has helped to heal the wounds of Rhoda’s
recent severed relationship, and she finds that even her unusual gift of
profound intuition is less of a burden as she continues to seek God’s
wisdom for her future. She is happy to be working alongside the King
family and the love of her life as they tend and nurture the
settlement’s orchard.
Yet when Leah King’s involvement with
Englischer Landon Olson becomes known outside of the Maine community,
her disregard of the Ordnung could threaten all the Orchard Bend Amish
are building. In the midst of addressing the discord, a shocking
tragedy challenges the young settlement like never before, threatening
to uproot Rhoda’s peace and the future of everything she holds dear.
When
several members of Orchard Bend Farms are displaced, the estranged King
brother is called upon to return. Can those who founded the new Amish
community in Maine unite Or will the lingering pain of past hurts and
present struggles result in the end of their dreams?
Review:
Cindy Woodsmall continues the life of Rhoda in her Amish Vine and Orchard
series. This was the 4th book in the series, but the first book I read and I
found it worth reading and held my interst from the introduction to the end. The
book takes Rhoda through the struggle of keeping a newly founded Amish community
together while dealing with the pains of past hurts and present struggles. I
look forward to finding the first 3 book so I can fully understand the complete
story line involved in this series. I would recommend this book as well as the
rest of the series to anyone that loves to read Amish books.
