Read this beautiful story of the quilter's son. Precious, precious story!
Liam is a young Amish man who is eager to leave for the English world and build his own construction company. He leaves his mamm (his daed has died), his twin, Lydia, and the love of his life, Lucy. After seven long years, his mamm comes up with a plan she hopes will bring him home. She buys a shop in dire need of repair and hires Liam's company to do the work.Will this plan work? Will Liam come back to his family and the community? Is Lucy married or can they still have a life together? You'll want to read this wonderfully written book by best selling author Samantha Bayarr.Samantha's books are consistently ranked #1 on ! She has become one of my favorite authors in the short time since I have discovered her writings.
The story began brilliantly with great anticipation. However there were quite a few parts of the story that ended up in the air. It seems as if the author decided it was all too complicated and so very quickly finished Liam's main story line and left many significant sections unresolved such as Amish/Englisher: Running business/farm life: Englisher/Amish marriage. Maybe the author has a sequel planned, but I couldn't find any suggestion of that. As usual with many e-books the proof reading was neglected.All that being said I still gave it 3 stars because the beginning was so good and I would read more of this author's books.
I can honestly say that in the past two years I have read 125 Amish nonfiction, and fiction books. Samantha is one of my favorite writers and she didn't disappointment me in this story of an Amish family, and a young man's journey to make a choice between living Plain or a life in the English world.
This book was not just great but fantastic. I can honestly say I just started reading the Amish books and have read all of Samantha's books. She is an amazing writer and this book does not disappoint. I was hooked from page one!! I couldn't put it down and read it within hours. I can guarantee that anyone who reads this Amish Romance book will love it!!
Story is ok. Has lots of potential however the book really centers around a lack of family communication. The whole story could have been better. It was a nice relaxing read on a cold afternoon but I'll be more choosy and read reviews before I purchase this author again.
Ms. Bayarr is an excellent storyteller of the Amish and combining it with one or more characters contemplating the Englischer ways. Much of the Amish lifestyle is a mystery to most in the U.S. until the recent reality shows reflecting the young Amish people participating in Rumsphringa. (Spelling?)Most young people go back to the Amish Community but during their Englischer time, they party, get jobs, get their GED's, go to college, get cell phones, driver's licenses, etc. It's a different way of life, most get homesick and go back to the Community. In this story, the hero, Liam is gone for seven years. The heroine, Lucy, remains single. They both own their own businesses, in their own way. Liam's mother brings the Yoder familye together, along with Lucy and Liam by hiring her son's construction business to do renovations for her new Quilt Shop. Hence, the series name. There are three other books to this series, which I am reading next. I'm thinking it's about Liam's twin sister and his best friend! Can't wait... I will be writing a review after each book, so stay tuned!
Just because the Amish lead a simple lifestlye, the writing doesn't have to be simple. This felt like I was reading a very bad book submitted in a writing class. Linear with no character depth. The storyline---lots of stated problems--Engllish/Amish marriage/-- Leaving/going back to Amish--& more. None of them developed. The writing is choppy, disjointed. The characters repeat themselves. I'm angry I spent $1.49 on this book. I wouldn't read a free one of this author, this is going straight to cloud
