Book Description

In A Hopeful Heart, the first novel of the new Hearts of the Lancaster Grand Hotel series from best-selling author Amy Clipston, Hannah finds herself at a crossroads in her life. Her community offers her love and support after the untimely death of her husband, but an Englisher offers her the chance of a new life after her unexpected tragedy. Wealthy businessman Trey Peterson is surprised by his attraction to the gentle Amish woman who works as a housekeeper in the Lancaster Grand Hotel. They share a common bond of loss and are able to offer each other comfort and support as they journey through their grief.
Joshua Glick wants nothing more than to offer his friendship and love to Hannah and her family. Not only is he her late husband’s brother and business partner, he has always been in love with Hannah.
A Hopeful Heart is filled with surprising twists as Hannah tries to balance her life in the Amish community and her growing love for an outsider.

My Take:  I wish to apologize for the lateness of this review.  Somehow this book got lost in the shuffle and I just didn't get around to reading it in a timely manner.  That being said better late than never.

This book was totally worth the wait and I loved it from the start.  I live outside Lancaster City and in Lancaster County so I always like to see how much is truly accurate in the Amish books set around here.  I really enjoyed this book and I think that it addressed some things that aren't just Amish related but human related like gossip.   I am looking forward to seeing how this series plays out and I am looking forward to revisiting the characters.

I received a review copy of this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange for my honest opinion.
