Sarah’s Garden
August 17th, 2010. Filed under: Tuesday's Tempting Reads.If you’re a regular reader here, you know I thoroughly enjoy books about the Amish. I want to thank Thomas Nelson Publishers for sending me a review copy of this book. I was not disappointed.
Sarah’s garden is her refuge. She has a special way with plants and gardens, and has been nurturing and being nurtured by her garden for years.
She has a good life until an Englischer comes along and intrudes. He’s the new veterinarian who has a special place in his heart for the Amish and ends up with Sarah in his heart as well.
Sarah fights against this love she has growing for Grant. If they would marry, she would be shunned by the community. Can she possibly survive outside the love of her family and community?
Can she survive a life of loneliness if she doesn’t marry the love of her life and has the family to fulfill her dreams?
It’s a difficult winter, and she no longer can find solace in her garden. This is when she creates a special quilt and stitches her pain into the design while she longs for spring and her garden.
Will it be at all possible for these two to have a “happy ever after” life? Will they be spending life together or apart. You can click on the picture below to read the first three chapters. Then you can just go ahead and buy the book.
Be sure and check out page 192 for Sarah’s remedy for a person who’s eaten too much. I’m still chuckling.
