It helped answer a few questions I had left over from the first book. I can't wait to read the third. I am really glad of how Hannah was able to move on and I hope with time I am too after my tragic ordeal. ( ) This was very good, and well written, and I found myself staying up way to late because I just had to finish the story; but I must say I didn't like how it ended (although there is still time for things to reconcile with book 3 in this series). If you want to be thoroughly frustrated and angry at people at times, then you will definitely like this story! I am starting book 3, "When the Soul Mends", right away, because I can't believe this is the end of a relationship that I have been pulling for all along. Hannah Lapp has fled her Old Order Amish community and finds a new home in Ohio with her shunned aunt Zabeth who she has never met before. Things aren't easy for Hannah at the beginning, but she is not a quitter and has more strength and determination than most people would realize. Her heart is breaking over losing the love of her life Paul, her health is in danger from her miscarriage, and she has no one but her Aunt to turn to. (I highly recommend you read these stories in order because it is like reading one whole book, just printed with 3 different covers and titles). Hannah will eventually find a good job, start schooling for a nursing career and find love and acceptance from her Aunt and from others. One of those "others" is a good friend and almost a family member of Aunt Zabeth, Martin Palmer. But back home in Pennsylvania, Paul never stops thinking of and hoping that Hannah will come home. There is much going on in that part of this story also, and some of it made me so angry I wanted to stop reading, but couldn't put the story down until I read how things would work out for everyone involved. And although I love this Martin character and appreciate what Hannah and him have together, I never stopped believing in Paul's love for Hannah and hoping they would come together again. I really hope the final story in this series ends well, because so far I am on pins and needles waiting to see what the future holds for everyone. This second book in the trilogy has Hannah learning and thriving albeit quietly in the English world. With help and love from her aunt's former charge (she was his nanny,) she gets her GED and works toward a nursing certificate. I loved her response when Martin gave her a lot of things to do for the second time in one evening: Did you invent the to-do list or something?" Things happen back in Owl's Perch, PA and the end of the book has Hannah returning for a visit to help her sister Sarah and go to a funeral. I was glad I had picked up the third book at the same time, so I didn't have to wait to start it. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: Her relationship with fiancé Paul Waddell in tatters, Hannah Lapp has fled her secluded Old Order Amish community in hopes of finding a new home in Ohio with her shunned aunt. Hampered by limited education and hiding her true identity, Hannah struggles to navigate the confusing world of the Englischers. Back in Owl's Perch, Pennsylvania, Paul is wracked with regret over his treatment of Hannah. Fearing for her safety, he tries to convince Hannah's remaining allies-brother Luke, best friend Mary, and loyal Matthew Esh-to help search for his love. Hannah's father, however, remains steadfastly convinced of her sinful behavior. His blindness to his family's pain extends to her sister, Sarah, who shows signs of increasing instability. Convinced her former life is irreparably destroyed, Hannah finds purpose and solace in life with her aunt and in a growing friendship with Martin Palmer. Will the countless opportunities in her new life persuade Hannah that her place is amongst the Englischers - or will she give in to her heart's call to return home and face her past?
