Book Review:A hopeful heart by Amy Clipston


I love Amy Clipston Amish fiction books!! This one was another great one in the first book of the new series "Hearts of the Lancaster Grand Hotel"!! Hannah is a Amish woman with three children who has lost her husband. She runs the horse farm with her late husband's brother Joshua and works part time at a local hotel to make ends meet. While working at the hotel she meets Trey who has come to the area to open a bed and breakfast. He has also experienced loss. He has lost his wife and daughter. Together they start talking and form an instant bond with each other. They understand each other and the lost they have been through. With the strict rules of the Amish community it becomes difficult for Hannah to see Trey. I loved this book. One of my favorite parts was seeing the English church through the eyes of Hannah. I loved the characters and stories coming out of each one. I can't wait for book 2 to come out to see where this all heads. I don't want to say to much because I don't want to spoil anything for you. A great book though from Amy! 

I received this book free from booksneeze.com for my honest review.

4th of July 2013

It's been raining it up here in Tennessee. I love rain though so I don't mind. We went to our local 4th fireworks and then downtown to Nashville for the fireworks. Luckily it didn't rain us out. I seen a little of "The Band Perry". It was so crowed though we started back to move near where we parked. I hope you all had a happy 4th!!!
