Publisher Description

Lillian Miller hopes the Plain life will offer her the peace of mind her heart desperately seeks.

Lillian’s first twenty-seven years have been challenging at best. Her decision to get reacquainted with her Amish grandparents in Lancaster County, PA, is an attempt at finding peace in a complicated world. But her plan has a flaw . . . Lillian is practicing the Amish lifestyle with no real understanding or relationship with God. And despite her best efforts, complications arise when she takes a fancy to Amish widower Samuel Stoltzfus who has an eleven-year-old son, David.

"If you've read any of my previous book reviews, you know I'm a sucker for good character development, and boy does Plain Perfect ever have THAT! :) I loved watching Lillian grow from a worldly 'Englischer' into a young lady devoted to God and determined to live according to His plans for her. I also enjoyed getting to know the other characters in this novel and hope some of them will make appearances in the other books in this series!"

    " I am a person that loves Amish fiction and while "Plain Perfect" was enjoyable, a part of me couldn't really get into the story. I thought the characters were underdeveloped and that the story line was predictable. The Amish books by Marta Perry, Amy Clipston and Beverly Lewis are much more enjoyable and very well written. I still plan to read the rest of a "Daughter of Promise" series, but if you are someone who only reads a few books I wouldn't recommend this one. "

    " woman with Amish roots goes back to her grandparents' to live. good story line but I felt like the main character acted a lot younger than her age (27) with no doubts about changing her life. That could have been expanded upon and would have made the book stronger. "

    " This book and its sequel are perfect if you're looking for a book that is once touching, engrossing, interesting, and faith-based. Obviously it is targeted towards women, and if you happen to be a man, I wouldn't suggest that you give this book a shot. Women, dig in. "
