Plain Promise by Beth Wiseman
A Daughters of the Promise Novel
The story is based on the intriguing connection between two people from two completely different worlds; one rich and famous and the other from an Amish community. The attraction between the two is unexpected and magnetic but because of the different lifestyles a life together or even a friendship seems to be impossible.
The author has a style of writing that is very captivating and the story is beautifully designed - a true page turner. The insight into the Amish community and faith was inspiring and convicting. There is a lot we could learn from the Amish, from their simple lifestyle to their strong faith in God.
It is hard not to love a good romance story, but this book is so much more than that. Throughout the book I was reminded how we can be so quick to judge others, how we can be so distracted by worldly things, and what a blessing family is. It is not often that a fiction story can have such powerful life lessons.
I loved this book and this author, I will be reading her previous books and will look for her new ones as soon as they come out.
