Okay so this is my first ever Jennifer Bekstrand book and also my first Amish romance book in general. This one was really good and a fun story. In fact, I actually now know Jennifer Beckstrand since she's my bishop's (pastor's) wife in a sort of new ward (congregation) I've been in since August of last year and found out around then she was an author and I was finally able to start one of her books. When I had a copy of the paperback from the library with me in a church bag of mine to remind myself to bring up how I found out she was an author, and I told her I already had a library copy of one of her books with me and she asked me which book it was a few months ago and I showed her this one. It was fun to see her light up and get all excited about this one and told me Andrew in this story has the cutest brothers and were hilarious, so it was fun to also see her love her own characters.

I have to agree Andrew's brothers were absolutely adorable and hilarious that's for sure! Alfie and Benji totally stole the story/show and yet overall, the story had a great moral to it about giving people second chances despite certain mistakes they've made when that person truly feels remorse and sorrowful for what they went through and is trying hard to become better like Mary in this story.

Mary did leave the Amish life for a few years and came back pregnant and when she arrived home, her mother slammed the door in her face and so it resulted in Mary to turn to another Amish member in the community who once left Amish country life to the real world and came back again because Mary knew this particular member would understand her predicament and so Mary was taken in by a good Samaritan.

As for Andrew meeting Mary and how that happens, well, you'll just have to read this for yourself and see why his 8-year-old twin brothers were playing matchmaker with Andrew and I have no doubt later with their other brother's Abraham and Austin I'm sure. In a nutshell, there's more to Andrew and Mary's story than meets the eye and one you'll just have to find out for yourself to see how that turns out because I absolutely enjoyed their story a lot. Now I'm excited to get to the next two books when I get a chance to listen to them and also to read and/or listen to more of Jennifer Beckstrand's books.
