review 1: I loved this story even more than the first book! But the one thing that kept driving me nuts was that the amish thought if they kill a man they will be condemned to hell. That's not true! Yes, killing anybody is a sin, but that doesn't condemn you to hell. The only way you won't go to hell is by asking Jesus Christ into your heart and believing that God sent His Son to die on the cross for us and our evil sins, but He rose from the grave on the third day. I just wanted to go inside the book and shake their heads! (I wouldn't literally do that, but you get my meaning.) Overall, it was a really good story. It had suspense, adventure, and a little romance. I am only reading this book because of the history that the Author talks about. It is very interesting what the amish p... moreut up with just so they could educate their children the way they see fit.
review 2: I finished reading The Captive Heart (The Daughter’s of Caleb Bender Series) last night. I am hooked, without a doubt! The story of the Bender family as the are living in Paradise Valley in Mexico is exceptional! Rachel, Miriam, Emma and Ada capture your hearts. Then you have Domingo who is the tough, strong and will fight to keep those he cares about safe. Levi is a loving and caring person devoted to his Amish faith. Then there is Micha he is accepted by those around him but he is very pompus and demending. You have Kyra the sister of Domingo that is very true and helpful to those around her. Arron who seems lost without his twin brother. Rachael and Levi have an undeniable love for one another and hope to be married. Mariam has to hide her true feelings for who her heart secretly longs to have a life with. This is the second book that I have read by Dale Cramer and I am officially hooked! I can’t seem to get enough of his books! This is a must read, especially if you read Amish fiction! I give this book 5 stars! less
