REVIEW:

This was such a sweet and enduring story about two sisters. The setting is in Amish Country. Opening the pages of this book you are plunged into the story between these two sisters and their relationship and their struggles. When they go back to visit their mother's sister, the sisters find out family secrets they weren't expecting which only brings their relationship closer and deeper. I loved how the author used real life situations even in the Amish setting (because most of us aren't accustomed to the Amish setting) and yet still made it a relatable situation for readers. I am very much looking forward to the next books in this series.
