" Who knew an Amish girl could have so much drama! Decent read. It was a captivating story and really drew me in more than The Shunning. "
— Mackenzie, 2/14/2014 -
" not as good as part 1 - pretty slow moving throughout. a few key plot points that will, i'm sure, be important now that i'm starting book 3, but not as enjoyable as others. "

— Jennifer, 10/31/2013 -
" Really liked the continuation of Katie Lapp's story. The ending was a little expected, but still a good story. "
— Andrea, 9/22/2013 -
" A simple, quick read, these books have their flaws, but are heartwarming nonetheless. These Amish stories are a guilty pleasure, and I really enjoy the view of the lifestyle from an "Amish" perspective, which illuminates many of the misconceptions about the culture. "
— Tara, 8/23/2013 -
" Well written; however, this could have been one book instead of three. "
— Brittany, 3/8/2013 -
" Still an enjoyable story, but so far I like the author's newer Rose Trilogy better. "
— Jc, 2/19/2013 -
" Pretty good story line through the series. There were a few things that really bothered me, but are spoilers, so I won't go into detail. They were also really predictable books. "
— Carol, 12/16/2012 -
" I enjoyed this series on the Amish. "
— Inspired, 9/26/2012 -
" I read this because my friend lent it to me, we go camping in Lancaster,Pa. every summer. I liked it, I found out a lot of things I did not know about the Amish. "
— Jani, 9/3/2012 -
" Our upbringing, as well as, our biology influence our lives. God uses ALL things for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purposes (well that is from the bible too of course : ) "
— Kristina, 8/12/2012 -
" More nerdy Amish drama - very entertaining. It was sort of like reading a lifetime movie . . . or maybe Hallmark. I'm invested now and will have to read the final book. "
— Shellita, 8/2/2012 -
" This is a story that goes on and on. It's ok but a little too fluffy for me. I wanted more details about the Amish culture but this steps outside of it. "
— Heather, 6/11/2012 -
" If I had not read the previous book, I woould have been totally lost. "
— Carol, 5/28/2012 -
" I'm still not in love with this trilogy. I did like that Katie is finally figuring out who she is & the book did have a bit more action & was more intriguing than the first. But still pretty predictable. "
— Brandy, 4/17/2012 -
" Liked it just fine for listening to. Interesting to learn about the Amish. "
— Kaelee, 3/11/2012 -
" All of her books about the Omish are very interesting, fun and wholesome books to read. I highly recommend these for young and older women and teens. "
— Traci, 11/1/2011 -
" Good quick read. Some parts were predictable, but I don't have a problem with that. Started The Reckoning (book 3 of the series) immediately after finishing this. Looking forward to finding out how the story ends. "
— Kelly, 9/18/2011 -

— Stacey, 8/13/2010 -

— Jodie, 7/4/2010 -
