Threads of Grace by Kelly Long

Plot: Grace's autistic son needs a life that is safe and consistent. Seth wants to leave his flirting days behind him and settle down. Deep in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania, the beautiful and weary Amish widow, Grace Beiler, is not looking for a husband—especially one so much younger than her. But handsome and smitten Seth Wyse stumbles upon a way to help her and they marry to keep Grace’s autistic son safe from his ill-intentioned uncle. Grace soon discovers that she is far from immune to her young husband’s experienced charm and realizes that her first marriage has not destroyed her capacity for love. Seth Wyse seeks counsel from his older brother, Jacob, when playing the game of pursuing his wife becomes more dangerous to both his heart and life than he ever imagined.Yet God can give Grace and Seth a passion for family and each other that teaches them the ways of the Master Quilter through the tangled and tender threads of their lives.


My thoughts:I just got the chance to read and review this book. I have read the other's in this series by Kelly Long and have enjoyed all of them. I read this one in no time. I loved Grace and Seth as a couple and the main characters in the book. It all centers around God's grace in your life. I thought the book was going to go one way with the character Tobias showing up,but it went a totally different way. I love that it was different from other Amish fiction as the characters were different then what you see in other Amish books. You feel like you know them and get really engaged in their story. Grace is a deep character that has put up with a lot in her past and finds it hard to trust men. Seth is so loving toward her and treats her with such patience and respect. I love her son Abel and this character is autistic and they touch on that subject in the book. It deals with a lot you don't think about in a Amish life. It's all about the ties the bind us together with grace. I very much enjoyed this book and you can read it as a stand alone book without having to read the other two in the series.

I received this book free from booksneeze for my honest review
