The perfect family awaits...if only he'll risk his heart.
Pregnant and recently widowed, Grace Fisher is determined to provide for her family on her own. Thankfully, her jam business is popular in her Amish community. But it's difficult keeping up with her work, her farm chores, and her two mischievous children. Especially now that they've taken to idolizing their neighbor Elijah. While the handsome farmer is kind and generous, he seems intent on holding Grace and her little ones at a distance...
Elijah Beiler has always admired his neighbor Grace. So standing by while she struggles to support her family isn't an option. Offering to take over her farm duties, Elijah is determined to help while remaining detached. He knows all too well that love only leads to heartbreak. Yet the more time he spends with Grace and her children, the harder he finds it to leave each day. But can Elijah overcome past hurts and open his heart to this ready-made family?

The Amish Widow's Rescue can be read alone if you have not read the previous novels in A Love & Promises series (but why not read all three of these charming books). The Amish Widow's Rescue is a moving story. The story has depth and it is an emotional read. Grace Fisher loved her husband, but Melvin changed after they married. She did not like how Melvin treated her and the children. Grace does not have time to wonder about what if's, because she needs to earn money to support herself and the children. Her jam making business has taken off and the orders keep pouring in especially after her niece, Miriam sets up a website. Grace has trouble accepting help from others, but that is exactly what she needs. Elijah steps in to help with the farm chores, but he wants to protect his heart from getting hurt. It is hard with the lovely Grace nearby and little Levi who enjoys spending time with Elijah. There are multiple storylines in the book (I do not want to say too much and spoil it for you). I enjoyed this well-written story with its appealing characters. I thought it was realistic, and it was interesting to learn more about the jam making business. The Amish Widow's Rescue is an engaging story that you will not want to put down once you start reading. There are two phrases from The Amish Widow's Rescue that I wanted to share. The first is âif this is God's will, He'll help you work everything outâ. I find this to be very true. âYou should never let pride keep you from speaking what's in your heartâ is the second phrase. How many of us are guilty of this one? If you are looking for a heartfelt and complex Amish novel, then pick up The Amish Widow's Rescue.
