review 1: I my honest opinion is this is a great love story an struggle between strong Amish and Baptist belief. Rachel King an Amish girl always wanted to work with horses. Rachel left Pennsylvania, Lancaster County, after her parents were kill in a fire. She went to live with her cousin a Mennonite Sarah and her husband Isaac Stoll who lived near a Thoroughbred stable in Kentucky. Sarah and Isaac had a chicken farm, but Rachel and the chicken didn't get along! When Rachel went and applied for a job at the Twelve Elm, she got the job. They ask if there would be a problem with her wearing jean and booties, Rachel said that there would be no problem because she was on her rumschpringe ( that meant she had not join the church yet) she already had a pair of jean, but she would have to ... moreget a pair of booties. Jessie Brady, her boss told her she had a pair if they fit. The first time that Jake Brady saw Rachel he fell in love with her. He ask her out, but she told him she could only go out with Amish, Mennonite guys. As time went on Rachel started having feelings for Jake Brady. Sarah tried to fix Rachel up with some Mennonite guy, but she didn't like any of them. Jake Brady ask Rachel to go to the Baptist church with him and she went. She enjoyed the service. They went out on dates. Rachel went to see the Bishop and talk to him about the difference between the Amish and Baptist? Didn't they all worship God Our Savior. Rachel ended up breaking up with Jake Brady will those to be able to get back together with the difference in their belief or will their love have to never be. You will have to read this wonderful love story to see if they get back together. Here hoping you read it. Because if you don't you are missing out on a great book
review 2: Really enjoyed this one. I live close to Casey County in KY and that made this book all the more interesting to me. I think I like the earlier books in the series more than this one. I think that is because the other books were more about an Amish community. This one was about a Mennonite Community but we see more of the English world at the horse farm. I also really liked the addition of the polio theme among the plain and trying to get them to get the vaccinations. Overall really cute story. less
