Katie
has lived through tragedy and heartache. But with the angel Elias by her side,
the best years of her life are just ahead.
When
Katie Bender’s fiancé died in a tragic accident, so did her hope of finding
love. Though heartbroken, Katie is also practical. In the years since the
accident she has discovered her gift for teaching. But when a tornado destroys
her small Amish settlement, including the schoolhouse, Katie doesn’t know how
she will provide for herself.
Seth
Stutzman arrived in Hope
Falls
Rebuilding
the community is a huge task, and soon, Katie and Seth are working side by
side. As they privately wrestle with their feelings for each other, another
silent—and ultimate—battle for their hearts rages unseen.
Sworn
to protect what God has ordained, the mighty angel Elias appears to them as a
mysterious visitor. And with his guidance, Katie and Seth find the courage to
take the first small steps toward the life, and love, they were destined for.
AN
ANGEL BY HER SIDE is the third book in Ms. Reid’s An Heaven on Earth series, but it easily stands alone. Fans of Ms.
Reid will want to read the first two books in the series The Promise of an Angel and A
Brush of Angel’s Wings.
AN ANGEL BY HER SIDE is easily the best book
in this series. Ms. Reid has really grown as a writer. The book starts with
action and keeps up the pace. Not only is this an Amish story, but it has
realistic, hurting characters, served with a side of spiritual warfare. I am
greatly impressed. I hope Ms. Reid writes many more books like this one. If you
like Amish fiction don’t miss AN ANGEL BY HER SIDE. Discussion questions are
included at the end of the book. 5 stars. $15.99. 368 pages.
