"The Heart"s Journey" by Barbara Cameron gets 5 stars from Me. It is the 2nd book in the Stitches In Time Series. This book can also be a stand alone and if this is the first book of the series you read first, you will find recipes and chapter 1 of Her Restless Heart and chapter 1 of Heart in Hand at the end of the book.
This story is about a subject that I haven't read in an Amish story before. Naomi is engaged to John, but is not really happy about it because John is an abuser. In the first chapter Anna,(Naomi's cousin ) gets upsets and storms out of the Stiches in Time shop and Leah (the three cousins's grandmother) goes after her and falls and strains her ankle. Leah is depressed and decides she is going to go to Pinecraft Florida for a vacation and Naomi is determined her go also to get away from John and sort out her feelings. Their English driver Nick decides he needs a vacation too and decides to stay in Florida also. The three had a great time. Naomi and Nick try to fight growing feelings for each other but find it impossible. There was one part in the book that me laughed out loud, I won't give out the reason but will say it was while they were traveling to Florida and the car on the road had a teenage boy. Oh the things the English do to make fun of the Amish. I think you would love Naomi and Nick's love story and their adventures on the beach at Florida, and how they make their love work for both!
I enjoy Amish fiction - and have not read any of the Stitches in Time series. I most certainly will keep my eyes open to find this one. Thanks for the review!
