Publisher Description

After a serious van accident leaves Amish school-teacher Jolene Yoder profoundly deaf, she leaves home to learn how to read lips and communicate with sign language. But two years later, a family with children who have been deaf since birth moves to Jolene's hometown, and she is asked to return as their teacher. Lonnie Hershberger has lost faith in God and in women ever since his girlfriend broke up with him when he lost his hearing during an explosion.

When he starts falling in love with Jolene, he worries how he can ever protect her if he can' hear. Besides, Jake Beechy seems to spend all his spare time with her. Ella Miller knows Jake's history with girls and fears he will break her cousin Jolene's heart. What she doesn't know is that Jake is fighting his growing attraction to Ella. What drastic measures will God take to break the barriers between these young lovers and teach them to hear the voice of love?

"Quick, easy read. Nothing too challenging about it, but it made for a good "in-between difficult books" read. I couldn't put it down; I read the whole thing in one sitting. My only complaint is that the author writes too in detail about everyone's thoughts, without allowing the reader to pick up on it themselves..."show, don't tell". That being said, the story was engaging and kept my interest. Light, fun read. Also, to note, I have not read the first two books of the series, but I don't think they're necessary to understanding the characters or story of this book. It reads fine as a stand-alone book."

    " Didn't care for book. Too many tragedies to even keep it relatively realistic. Maybe I am just tired of Amish fiction.... "

    " This book takes place in towns that are in my home state. I enjoyed reading about these places that I have visited many times. The writing itself I found to be predictable most of the time. Near the end of the book there was a couple of surprises thrown in, and that made the last part of the book more exciting. "

    " This book was a strong and heartfelt story about what happens when the heart makes a connection.
