About this listen
Moving to Pennsylvania wasn't in Madeleine's original plans. She should still be in California and should have married her pilot fiancé a year ago - but death has a way of changing everything. Now the former Air Force flight nurse is living alone in Paradise, Pennsylvania, and working as a maid at the Lancaster Grand Hotel. She isn't exactly a widow...but she sure feels like one.
Saul Beiler isn't exactly a widower...but his wife is long gone. His 11-year-old daughter, Emma, doesn't know that her mother fled the Amish community - and married another man - but she does know that her dat is lonely, and that a pretty young mädel just moved in next door. Madeleine's numb heart begins to thaw as she spends more time with the innocent and ever optimistic Emma. The stronger her friendship grows with the young girl, the more intrigued Madeleine grows about the humble, strong man raising her on his own.
But even as a strange attraction pulls Saul and Madeleine across a stark cultural divide, they - and everybody around them - have to wonder: What could they possibly have in common besides heartache? Will love allow Madeleine to finally find the home she's been dreaming of all along?

Very good
I loved this sequel in the series! You can read it alone but probably better to read the first 2.
A story of differences, friendships, rules and heart break! Also a story of forgiveness and love! A beautiful description of love and faith!
I so enjoyed Madeline and Sauls story!

Love the story...
but, as with every story in this series, the reader has a hard time using consistent character voices, and sometimes stays in one character voice even when its multiple characters speaking. The pacing at times is sometimes wonky, and Dutch pronunciation changes frequently for the same word.

Absolutely Not
I could not even get through the entirety of this book. The total disregard by an adult for a parent's clear and concise wishes regarding their child is ridiculous, shocking and concerning. The fact that an adult is letting a child persuade them to ignore the request of their parent and that adult doing so without consulting the parent is unbelievably - I don't even know a strong enough word for it.
