The Wonder of Your Love by Beth Wiseman

I received a free copy of Beth Wiseman's new novel, The Wonder of Your Love. It is book 2 in her Land of Canaan series, which takes place in Colorado. Katie Ann Stoltzfus finds her herself widowed at age 40 and raising a newborn. Eli Detweiler has been a widower for 17 years, and during that time raised 6 children on his own. Now he has plans to travel the country and enjoy his freedom. When he travels to Colorado for a wedding, he can't help but feel attracted to Katie Ann. He loves to help others and knows just what to do for a colicky newborn. Katie Ann has never met another man like him, yet she can't trust her heart. Her first husband was unfaithful and she is still trying to pick up the pieces. As they seek God for answers, they realize that God's ultimate plan may be different from their own. I enjoyed reading the continuing story of characters from the first book in the series. It picks up right where the last one left off. The Amish is this book sometimes don't seem like other Amish. They are more outspoken and are allowed more freedoms, so it didn't seem like real life. It was a quick read for me. If you like Amish, this is a typical book in a modern day Amish community.
