Publisher's summary

Martha Yoder moves to Hollybrook to help her sister Sarah with her three young sons. Sarah is alone now since her husband’s efforts at farming failed, and he went north to work at the factories. At Sarah’s home, Martha’s days are filled with housework, helping to care for her nephews and tending the animals. She even goes so far as to take a job in town.

Alan Lapp tries to manage the family farm, his father’s worsening health, and his older brother’s absurd demands. His shunned brother Will is relentless in his pursuit of the family land, and Alan must find a way to stop him.

Alan finds comfort and solace in his budding friendship with Martha. When Martha is forced to leave town, he is bereft. Is the only good thing that’s happened to him in a long while now leaving his life? And how can he possibly turn things around and ensure Martha stays in Hollybrook?

Characters Were A Delight!

I have loved reading about the Amish for a long time. This audiobook was great with a great narrator. The characters were a delight and I enjoyed reading about Sarah and her husband and Martha and her friend and their everyday life. We get to see what troubles they have how they work them out. If you like to read Amish stories I think you will enjoy this short story.
I received this free audiobook but was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Good storyline

I found this book to be forced in some of the movement forward of the story. With that, the storyline is good and covers some real life challenges. I like the Amish theme and the problems that the characters struggled with because of the lifestyle.
The reader has a pleasant voice, did a great job with the story, and kept a good pace.
