This is a fascinating story about how one person can influence someone's life. Even though Sarah Shelter lives in West Kootenai, Montana, where a lot of Amish bachelors come to hunt for months out of the year, she hasn't fallen in love. Ever since her best friend Patty died a couple years ago, she's held people at arm's length, the same way she's kept her memories in a jar instead of close to her heart. That all changes when she meets Jathan Schrock. Will he really understand who she is and can he trust her in return?
I liked how the story revealed memories she had of Patty and the wisdom she gained from knowing her. This one person had a profound impact on who she became and it's amazing to think how important one person can be to someone else. The romance was sweet and I liked the struggle between fighting for your dreams or fulfilling other people's plans for you, especially a parent's. I was a little frustrated with Jathan, but I could understand where he was coming from. This is the first book in the Seven Brides for Seven Bachelors series and it's worth the read!
I received this book free from Zondervan in exchange for an honest review.
