My Review:
Marrianne Sommer was born on the day her two sisters were killed in a buggy/eighteen wheeler accident. The parents and children were on their way home when Abe the father kept dozing off and before he knew it the accident happened.
Marrianne was name for the two sisters and her older brother Levi was only three at the time. Now Levi is grown and has left home for an English life style, Marrianne is (sort of) dating Amos Zook, even though he had never dated her, there was just and understanding. He was building them a house but she had never saw it. Abe had taken all he could at their home in Indiana and wanted to move to Montana where his brother lived. They packed up everything and moved to a new way of life. The Amish were few in this area and they mixed in with the English. Marrianne had told Amos that she was only staying six months and she would return home to him, but will she?
Everything was different here in Montana the homes were far apart and there was no place to farm so what was Abe going to do? Marrianne went to work and was getting involved with an Englich man named Billy, he was a driver for the Amish but didn't know many of their ways. Will the family decide to stay in Montana or will they go back to their seventy acre farm in Indiana? This book was different than a lot of the Amish books I have read, as in this one they mingled with the Englich a lot more than most of the ones did, from the other Authors.
This is the first Amish book Tricia Goyer has written but she has plenty other books under her belt. Good book.
This book was sent to me free from Litefuse Publicity Group for my honest review.

This sounds like a good exploration of what it is like for an Amish family to be living out of their community. I am interested in finding out how these characters interact and develop.
Thank you for the review.
