Review:
It seems that almost every time I'm at Walmart, I see people either reading the back covers of Amish fiction titles or putting them into their carts. It seems the genre is extremely popular with other readers, besides from just me. One of my favorite writers from the genre is Shelly Shepard Gray, whom just recently published the third book in the Amish Brides od Pinecraft series, titled A Wedding at the Orange Blossom Inn'.
It centers on a widow named named Emma Kein who is left alone to raise her three young daughters. While it's been difficult to move on with her life, especially since her family wants her to remain a widow, she gets a second chance at love when she meets Jay Hilty, whom happens to be a widower himself with three young sons.
Both Emma and Jay are protective of their children as well as their hearts, so they slowly build a friendship that is until Jay's oldest son meets a local woman and decides to get married. With all the wedding preparations going on, Jay and Emma wonder if they can find happiness together.
I guess you can say that this is the Amish version of the Brady Bunch as both the main characters are widowers with three children each. I enjoyed reading the first books in the series (The Promise of Palm Groove and The Proposal of Siesta Key) and I wasn't disappointed with the third installment. Yes, there were a few cliched moments here and there, but nothing that bothered me from enjoying the novel. Overall, Shelly Shepard Gray once again spins her magic with the heartwarming A Wedding at Orange Blossom Inn'.
