Marrying Jonah by Amy Lillard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
They were married bound for life. The only thing that they had in common was time. All things change with time. A farmer’s mentality, with time, seeds became plants, and plants became more. With time the seasons changed. All things with time.
Sarah Yoder has always loved Jonah from afar. A crush that was well known in the community but never returned. However, circumstances change between them when they both needed a friend and in their weakness; they succumb to a bad decision that they cannot deny because of their faith and the Amish way.
To make it right, they both agree to marriage and in their young marriage must learn to trust each other. There is much tension as they both fight their hurt and misunderstanding to make a life a together. It speaks of what love really is where there is no love but only mistrust. How each of them comes to discover love not in the emotional way but a way that is eternal.
I loved this story and the how the pain turned something ugly to something beautiful and lovely. How Jonah and Sarah became intentional above love and commitment and discovered the fruit that last forever. I highly recommend.
A Special Thank You to Kensington and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.
