Wanted..

For a split second, Katie feels certain she's about to receive everything she's ever wanted. . .
Twenty-year-old Katie Brenneman has always quietly fancied Jonathan Lundy. So when the brokenhearted widower asks her to help him take care of his two young girls, Katie knows it will be a trying time—yet she cannot pass up a golden opportunity to get to know this man better.
Just as she's settling into her new life, a message arrives from Katie's past, threatening to expose her darkest secrets. During her Rumspringa, her running-around years, she experimented with activities forbidden in the Amish way of life. Frightened by how far she'd strayed from her values, Katie ran back home, vowing to cut all ties with the outside world. Now her transgressions are coming back to haunt her, just as Jonathan seems willing to welcome her into his heart.
Will the past destroy Katie's chances for love? Or will Katie allow herself to accept God's love, forgive her past, and receive everything she's ever wanted?

An actual amish fiction that I could get into. It was actually pretty darn good considering I started with the second book in the series. I was drawn in by Katie's personality and how the whole thing played out. I discovered this in my search for the one amish fiction that I was interested in when I browsed through a Lifeway ad that came to the house and accidentally discarded it. *rueful smile* In my ambitious cleaning of paperwork. Yeah..
The first Amish fiction I tried failed miserably but this one by Gray had me reaching for the 3rd book after this. *smiles* And I'm not a big followupper in series.
I gave it 4 stars.
