In this new novel set in the beloved Oklahoma Amish community of Wells Landing, three generations of women challenge themselves and each other to make a fresh start in faith, family—and love.
Jenna Burkhart is tired of being “special” and hearing about what she can't do. Even though she suffered a head injury in a childhood swimming accident, she wants a life of her own just like any Amish woman. But now that she, her mamm, and her mammi have moved to Wells Landing, she's having a hard time fitting in. . . . Until she meets Buddy Miller, a boy just like her, who gives her the confidence to reach for the impossible . . .
Like Jenna, Buddy is used to being the boy no one expects much from, the one people see as “different.” Still, being around Jenna’s lively, kind-hearted ways makes him strive ever-harder to become the self-sufficient Amish man she deserves. But in the face of family disapproval and their own fears, will Jenna and Buddy's courage be enough to give them a forever happiness together?

Marilyn's thoughts: I love the
cover for Loving Jenna. Then to find a sweet and heart touching story inside
was a treasure. I was enthralled reading Jenna's and Buddy's story. Lillard
penned a beautiful story as we watched them blossom with their lives even
though they faced challenges, being called “simple” or “special” and others
saying they couldn't do something. Their
connection when they first met brought them a lot of determination, fortitude
and admiration for one another despite the negative remarks. Jenna and Buddy took
a leap when they both wanted jobs to prove their independence. Buddy’s love for
animals and Jenna’s gentleness and soothing way with babies brought wonderful
results for Titus and Abbie. Will they be able to survive the storm they faced
during a conversation?
Fans of The Wells Landing Series by Amy Lillard will not want
to miss this book which can be read as a standalone, too. I appreciate how
Lillard penned this story from the heroine and hero perspective. Thankfully
Jenna’s Mammi and Buddy’s mamm stood up for them as the story progress.
I received a complimentary ARC copy of this book from the
author and was under no obligation to post a positive review. All thought are
my own for this wonderful story.
