This is my latest read. I just finished it up. The back reads:
For as long as anyone can remember, tourists have flocked to the quaint town of Paradise, Pennsylvania, where Amish buggies are as common as shops selling hand-crafted goods. But to attorney Julia Spencer, this town is anything but a paradise. Raised in foster homes, Julia has succeeded in life only through steely determination and independence. The close knit Amish people are a mystery to her. But local veterinarian Simon Thomas knows them well and is fiercely protective of their simple ways, which are increasingly threatened by the outside world. When Julia agrees to defend a local teenager charged in a case involving an amish boy, she and Simon find themselves on opposite sides of an intense and emotional legal battle. Just when it all seems they will never understand one another, God has something to teach them both about the power of forgiveness...and the joys to be found in Paradise.
I would give this book an seven out of ten stars (and that's only because I reserve the higher awards for only the best of the best of the best!)
This book (by Loree Lough) was cute but there wasn't anything in it that really grabbed me or jumped out at me or spoke to me. I felt like the storyline was actually a little different than what the back of the book describes but was still cute. I just didn't feel there was anything extra special about it.
