"3.5 out of 5 stars! A spin-off from Ms. Davids' "Amish Redemption" (book 13 in her Brides of Amish Country) follows Joshua's oldest brother Samuel who is determined to work hard by expanding his family's furniture business in hopes of keeping his brothers (and their own families when they get them) living in their community of Bowmans Crossing. However, a detrimental accident leaves Samuel temperately blind and has second/third degree burns on his hands and face. As harvest time approaches Rebecca, a young Amish widower who now helps those as a caretaker, is asked to assist Samuel and his family. During their time together, they grow close but is Rebecca willing to open her heart enough to love someone else again and will Samuel be able to overcome his need to take on the world without asking for help?

This is a sweet novel about overcoming heartache and circumstance."

I didn’t want this book to end, what a delightful read, the banter that goes on between Samuel and Rebecca is so funny. Yes there are serious moments here and we weather them along with some joy.
Rebecca has lost her husband; the love of her life, and her brother-in-law appears to be courting her as the book opens. Then there is a serious injury, and that ends up being Samuel. He feels he is entirely responsible for their families furniture business, and when he is injured he takes the blame for everything.
As you can guess, Rebecca is called to help by Samuel’s Dad; she took care of her husband when he was ill. Now opens the door to maybe a new life in Amish nursing, moving away and learning, or a bit of romance? It appears that one of Samuel’s brothers may be interested?
Can Samuel accept his disabilities, and will the family business be able to continue. Ms. David’s has written a really compelling read, and it was so very enjoyable, I for one cannot wait for the next book in this series.
I received this book from the Publisher Harlequin through Net Galley, and was not required to give a positive review. ( )
