Twenty-seven-year-old Joanna Kurtz has made several trips to the altar, but never as a bride. The single young Amish woman is a closet writer with a longing to be published something practically unheard of in her Lancaster County, Pennsylvania community. Yet Joanna's stories aren't her only secret. She also has a beau who is courting her from afar, unbeknownst even to her sister, Cora, who, though younger, seems to have suitors to spare. Eben Troyer is a responsible young Amish man who hopes to make Joanna Kurtz his bride, if he can ever leave his parents' farm in Shipshewana, Indiana. Yet with his only brother off in the English world, intent on a military career, Eben's hopes for building a life with his dear Joanna are dimming, and patience is wearing thin. Will Joanna ever be more than a bridesmaid?… (plus d'informations)

I liked the main character, Joanna Kurtz, age 24, several times a bridesmaid but getting to the age in her Amish community where she might be called an old maid or Maidel. Her younger sister. Cora Jane was trouble. Joanna could not trust her. Cora Jane was sneaky and wanted to get Joanna trouble. I wondered about this and was disappointed that Beverly Lewis did not go more in deep with that character.

Joanna met a responsible and caring man, Fben Troyer and they immediately liked each other. They were at a funeral at Virginia Beach. Unfortunately, Joanna lived in Hickory Hollow and he in Indiana so it had to be a long distance courtship. Eben also had trouble with his sibling. His younger brother had become enchanted with airplanes and wanted to fly like a bird. This background helped a lot in understanding why his brother left the Amish community to live on the outside He had no grudge against Eben, he just to be a pilot. Eben father is insistent that Eben's brother come back and and care for the family farm before Eben can leave to marry Joanna.

This seems like an impossible situation. I enjoyed most of the book but was troubled by why Cora Jane was wanting to get Joanna in trouble. I wanted more depth. I still recommend this book to fans of Beverly Lewis. ( )

Note: I won this book Though LibraryThing Early Reviewers for my Honest Review.

This book is about Joanna and her struggles and a bit about Hickory Hallows. I really enjoy this book though the eyes of Joanna. There some so strange about how it starts and ends. She so want to be a wife and mother and waiting for her special someone.

Eben is happens to run into her while they are at the Virginia Beach for Joanna great, great Uncle funeral. Thought Eben has is struggles at home in Indiana. What he has a dilemma and he so love a girl. Will they get what they both want in terms of each other?

They both have their struggles. Joanna struggles with Eben is mean for her or not. Joanna has to work something out while in Hickory Hallow and Eben has to work though his delimma with is family and brother and his family farm.

The book tell you about keeping your faith in the Lord, and teach about separation along with long distance Relationship and that you may need to give a little sometimes. Though I would rather you read this for yourself and decide if this is what you get when you are reading it. I would recommend it folks to read if they enjoy fiction and or Amish. You choose for yourselves.
