The Waiting by Suzanne Woods Fisher

MY THOUGHTS:

If you have been a reader of my blog for any length of time, you know how much I love books that are set in the Amish country. This book was a great read with meaning and purpose. I have long enjoyed this author and this book showed me once again why. Jorie and Caleb were relatable characters that I rooted for throughout the entire book. If you are looking for a book to curl up with in front of a fire during these cool, fall nights, this one is it!

ABOUT THIS BOOK:

She was waiting for love--and found it in the most unexpected place.

Jorie King's life is on hold. She has been waiting for Ben Zook to return to Lancaster County. Waiting for him to settle down and join the church. Waiting to marry him.

But when news arrives that Ben has been killed, Jorie is devastated. She finds unlikely comfort in the friendship of his brother Caleb. Friendship ripens into love, and two broken hearts plan for a life filled with the promise of a fresh beginning--until their worlds are turned upside down.

With her realistic characters whose weaknesses develop into strengthes, Suzanne Woods Fisher offers a reading experience that rises above the others. You will love growing in spirit with these complex people living the simple life as The Waiting transports you into a world where things aren't as simple as they seem.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
