Title: A MIRACLE OF HOPE
Author: Ruth Reid
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
December 2013
ISBN: 978-1401688295
Genre: Amish
She’s heard about
forgiveness all her life, but how far does God’s mercy truly reach?
Lindie Wyse thinks an arranged
marriage is the only way to preserve a future for herself and her unborn child.
Josiah Plank is certain he’ll never love again, but he needs someone to care
for his deaf eight-year-old daughter, Hannah.
The two take on their
arrangement tentatively at first but soon realize they are each in for more
than they imagined. After a short time, Lindie experiences a breakthrough with
Hannah when she recognizes the child’s special gifts, but a risky pregnancy and
serious health issues threaten to demolish the foundation Josiah and Lindie are
building—and the love that is growing between them.
Will their marriage
survive their struggles, or will their hearts become as cold as the northern
winter?
A MIRACLE OF HOPE is the
first book in Ms. Reid’s newest series An
Amish Wonder. Set in the upper peninsula of
I enjoyed getting to know
Josiah—though I did worry about him and his health, and was glad he had a
doctor on top of things. I also loved the way he cared for Lindie even though
he’d “never give her his heart.” I was
glad Lindie struggled through Hannah’s issues to win her heart, too.
Ms. Reid includes the
supernatural in her writing. This book has a lesser amount than Ms.
Reid’s first series, but it is still evident with Hannah’s gifts. If you like
Amish fiction, then you will want to read A MIRACLE OF HOPE. My daughter loves
this book—and all of Ms. Reid’s fiction and read it twice in less than a week. $15.99.
352 pages. 4.5 stars.
