Rachel King has always
wanted to work with horses, but when her handsome boss sweeps her off her
feet, she starts to doubt everything in life, including her Amish faith. Horse
breeder and trainer, Jake Brady dreams of winning the Kentucky Derby with
his new colt. But how much is he willing to risk for a chance at fame and
fortune? A Little Bit of Charm--a
story about making choices that will last a lifetime.
A LITTLE BIT OF CHARM is the third
book in Ms. Ellis’ New Beginnings series.
Fans of Amish fiction will want to read Living
in Harmony and Love Comes to Paradise
to find out how the two oldest girls found love and settled in a new location,
finding new careers and making adjustments to different life-styles in
different Amish settlements.
I enjoyed getting to know Rachel and
Jake, and how they work with horses. I don’t know much about the racing world,
but I do know Kentucky
There is a subplot regarding polio
in this story that didn’t really seem to fit in with Rachel and Jake’s romance,
but it was interesting to see the responses people had to vaccinations and why
as the health worker made her rounds.
If you like Amish fiction, in this
series, Ms. Ellis takes us to different communities in the country—from Maine , to Missouri , to Kentucky
The story was quiet, unassuming, and
didn’t demand attention. If you want a peaceful sort of book to read over the
course of several days, Ms. Ellis’ A LITTLE BIT OF CHARM is perfect.
4 stars. Available in paperback, hardcover,
and ebook. 352 pages.
