Editorial Review: Product Description: She couldn't turn her back on her family in their time of need. So when her sister was injured, financial expert Andrea Hampton traded the big city for Amish country to help turn her grandmother's house into an inn. But life with the Plain People took a treacherous turn when a string of accidents and pranks threatened her family. Someone didn't want the secrets the old house harbored to come to light. Trusting anyone-- even the handsome carpenter who seemed so genuine--was a battle for Andrea, but her life depended on her ability to find the truth. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Lots of fun!I really enjoyed this book, and not just because it was free on the Kindle! Interesting characters, new things to learn, a bit of a mystery....what's not to like? I hope to enjoy more by this author. Rating:  - Excellent readingI read this book in 2 days. I couldn't believe it was a free book because it was so good!! Rating:  - Heavy-handed.The book wasn't bad for a freebie, but it certainly was no blockbuster. I would be very disappointed if I had paid for it. The resolution of the mystery was simple, I think that most readers would figure it out before the half-way point. While I realize that this is a Christian romance novel, I think that that aspect was heavy-handed. The story really beat you over the head with the main character's lapse in faith. Most people don't spend that much time thinking "I would pray if could remember how". I think that this seemed unrealistic. I understand doubt and lapse, as well as the return to faith. I just think that in reality, it is more subtle than that. Andrea's experience seems almost cartoonish, and definitely unrealistic. Rating: - Hide in Plain SightThis is like a made for TV movie. Thin plot. Not very compelling writing. Not very interesting characters. Classic "scary" scenes that make your eyes roll. All infused with heavy religious overtones. Good thing this was free. Rating:  - Light, quick readRead this book in two sessions over two days. Formulaic, but entertaining nonetheless. It is the type of book I like to read on lunch breaks or in waiting rooms. It keeps you interested without stressing you out. Found myself skimming over extraneous detail, but it proved to be worth reading. Browse for similar items by category: Click to Display |
