His Accidental Amish Family

His Accidental Amish Family by Rachel J. Good is the third book in Unexpected Amish Blessings series. It can be read on its own, but you will be missing out on two special novels. Anna Flaud was mentioned briefly in His Pretend Amish Bride. I thought His Accidental Amish Family was well-written with developed characters. The story starts out a little slow, but it soon picks up the pace. I like that this is not a traditional Amish romance. Anna Flaud is a strong woman who works hard to achieve a difficult goal. I like that she did not let disappointment set her back. Anna came up with a new plan that would benefit children in need. Levi has his own demons. He blames himself for a tragic accident and works hard to make amends for what happened. His brother, Jonah is such a sweetheart. Misunderstandings and miscommunications abound. The kids add further depth and interest to the story as well as humor. I like that the characters in the story were realistic. I do wish that we were given more details on Anna’s condition. I believe it would have added more realism to the story. I like that the story addresses the issue of the foster system. We get to see two families making a difference. We also learn that that you never know what God has planned for your life. His Accidental Amish Family is a touching story. I enjoyed reading this special Amish novel which is a lovely addition to the Unexpected Amish Blessings series. His Accidental Amish Family is a heartening tale with confused kids, tiring physical therapy, past promises, agonizing guilt, miscommunication, misunderstandings, and a compulsory mate.

Thanks go to the publisher and Net-Galley for the complimentary copy of His Accidental Amish Family by Rachel J. Good. I agreed to read and review this emotionally charged novel prior to publication. My opinions are my own, and no one has influenced them. His Accidental Amish Family is a lovely Amish fiction novel with endearing characters and a heartfelt plot. Ms. Good brings her amazing understanding of Amish life to this highly enjoyable tale. She has clearly done her research regarding foster care too. The pacing of this book pulled me in from the start and kept my attention until the end. Anna Flaud is our heroine, and I fell in love with her from the start. I could feel her pain and guilt over the accident that left her unable to walk. Her willingness to open her home to foster children is amazing since she spends her time in a wheelchair. Her determination to walk is admirable, and her struggle touched me. When she starts to have feelings for the hero, she is cautious after what happened with her ex-fiancée. Levi King is the Amish hero, and he’s the individual who helps Anna learn to walk again. How he deals with Anna’s impatience during the process is amazing, but he senses guilt behind what drives her, and he understands that since he has guilt over his brother’s disabilities. He shows more emotion than is typical in an Amish man, and it made it much easier to become vested in his character. The romance doesn’t start at the beginning of the novel since Anna is pushing herself to walk for Gabe, the man who was driving the buggy when the accident happened, but she is fascinated by Levi even before she finds Gabe has fallen in love with another. Through a misunderstanding, Levi believes she’s married and has a baby. Once that is cleared up, the romance grows in a lovely way, and I wanted them to find their happy ending. If you enjoy Amish romances with character you will love and a plot so poignant it will touch your heart, then you will love His Accidental Amish Family as much as I did. The storyline involving foster children is heart wrenching and made me cry on more than one occasion. I highly recommend this novel if you are looking for a book with more substance. Happy reading!
