About this ebook

Following Breath of Spring, a homecoming tests the town of Willow Ridge. “Fans of Amish fiction will love the Seasons of the Heart series.”—Marta Perry, national bestselling author
 
The tranquil little town of Willow Ridge is facing a startling challenge. Wealthy Nora Glick Landwehr is determined to make it her home again—and put her past to rest. Cast out by her own family, Nora can’t reconcile with Old Amish ways or her strict father. But she’ll do anything to help her community embrace the future . . . and make amends to the daughter she had to give up. So, she certainly has no time for her reckless new neighbor Luke Hooley. They disagree about almost everything. And how can she trust him if he always seems to believe the worst about her? Somehow, though, his unexpected support and passionate heart are helping her find her own way in faith. And Nora will discover that even in the face of insidious lies and unyielding judgment, God creates unexpected chances for forgiveness—and love.

Thoughts: Charlotte Hubbard’s Harvest of Blessings is a coming home tale, but in Willow Ridge, an Old Amish community, this hometown girl, Nora Glick Landwehr, gets welcoming by some, an excoriation by others, and becomes a target of a scheme making this Amish read into a page-turner I highly recommend! Nora Glick Landwehr has left a thrust upon her English lifestyle to meet and make amends to her daughter that she had to give up, leaving her to be raised in the Plain life, and to her family. Forgiveness and faith are to grow together, but with one former pastor and bishop, faithful is not a trait to be relied upon causing stormy winds to blow through Willow Ridge. Can good come from these ashes? Hope turns to despair. Nora’s family reunion desires get squashed when her dat makes his rejection a public spectacle, letting out the big secret that Millie Glick wasn’t born to the woman who raised her and setting up the scene for a former bishop to attempt to lay claim on Nora’s land and life. ***This opinion is my own.***
