When Hope Blossoms
Kim Vogel Sawyer
As I have said before, I enjoy Amish fiction. This book is
good, but is pretty predictable with it’s
man-meets-woman-and-gets-married-in-the-end storyline that goes along with
several of the Amish stories I have read. I did enjoy the book, but it was easy
to figure out how the ending would be.
Amy Knackstedt, a widow, moves herself and her three
children to a new town after the death of her husband. Her neighbor, Tim Roper, is not at all happy
about his new neighbors. As a former Mennonite, he is not happy about the
reminders of the life he previously lived. When circumstances force Amy and Tim
to interact, they are both surprised by the friendship that develops. They must
decide if this friendship will develop into something more or if Tim will hold
on to the hurts of his past.
This story has a sense of adventure and a twist of romance
to it. It is a light and fluffy read, as most stories like these are. Like I
said, I did enjoy it even though it was very predictable in general. I will
give it to the author that she throws in a few “surprises” in the story line to
make it a more interesting read.
