Arms of Mercy

Amish Mercies Series, Book 2

By: Ruth Reid

Narrated by: Callie Beaulieu

On the eve of a new year, Catherine Glick is expecting her bu of five years to propose. Instead, the unexpected arrival of an old boyfriend, Elijah, sends her life spiraling out of control. When a rash decision damages her current relationship, Catherine leaves for Florida to work in her cousin's bakery - anything to flee the source of her shame.

Elijah Graber knows he hurt Catherine when he left their Amish district six years ago. He's determined to explain his actions, even if it means following her to Florida. Perhaps their two-day bus trip together will provide enough time for him to make his case and win her back.

Just when Elijah is starting to tear down the walls Catherine has built, their bus skids on an icy road - and amid the mayhem and tragedy that follow, Catherine disappears. Elijah's friends urge him to prepare for the worst, but Elijah holds on to his hope in God and refuses to give up his search for Catherine. With supernatural nudging from the most unexpected places, Elijah sets out to find the love he once lost - no matter the cost.

Good but not great

Overall what you would expect from an Amish romance but a little too predictable and there were some holes in the plot.

Good read!

I recommend this book! At some points I couldn’t put it down. Loved the weaving of the red-headed man into the books so far.

Great read

I really enjoyed this book , can’t say there was anything about this book I disliked

Wonderful

Such a surprisingly exciting and suspenseful book! Loving and kind I love learning of the Amish culture and their total faith in God's teachings. But the way it is brought about in this book means even more! It's not simply an Amish love story but a story of love, endurance, belonging, and the will of a man in love who never gives up.

Great story!!

I loved the story and how it was presented. It moved at a good pace and was unique in the details. I’m loving this author
