Read My #Review of Goodbye to Yesterday & Be Part of the Scavenger Hunt #Giveaway

I’m excited to be participating in the Discovery Saga online scavenger hunt. For full details on the hunt and how you can participate (and possibly Win an Amazon Kindle) please go HERE

Part 1 in The Discovery series.

Join Meredith and Luke Stoltzfus, an Amish couple who are faced with the greatest challenge of their young lives. Financial struggles. Arguments. A suspected pregnancy. A last-minute trip to Middlebury, Indiana. A deadly encounter at a Philadelphia bus station. Will their love and faith be enough to bring them back together again, against all odds?

My Take:

I'm definitely hooked on this series, and waiting on pins & needles for #2! I immediately took a liking to both Merrie and her husband Luke. They are such a wonderful couple.

Luke being a proud man is the primary breadwinner and has been out of a job for six months. This has caused some strife between the two over finances. When he gets a message from his uncle in Indiana offering him his business of engraving headstones, he is elated and sets off for Indiana and hopefully, a new start for him & his family.

His wife, Merrie isn't so sure about this endeavor plus she doesn't want to be separated from him for weeks while he learns the business. She hasn't told him yet, but suspicions that she is pregnant.

Along the bus trip he encounters a drug addict who attacks him for his clothing and money. I just wanted to yell out-loud.. No! Not this kind man who may becoming a father for the first time and his beautiful wife who is anxiously waiting for him back at home.

Will he survive? WHAT will happen to Merrie? Will they ever be together again?

Wanda Brunstetter is an award-winning romance novelist who has led millions of readers to lose their heart in the Amish life. She is the author of over 60 books with more than 6 million copies sold.

Wanda is considered one of the founders of the Amish fiction genre, and her work has been covered by national publications, including Time Magazine and USA Today. Wanda’s books have been translated into four foreign languages.

Wanda’s fascination with the Amish culture developed when she met her husband, Richard, who grew up in a Mennonite church, and whose family has a Pennsylvania Dutch heritage. Meeting her new Mennonite sister-in-laws caused Wanda to yearn for the simpler life. In their travels, she and her husband have become close friends with many Amish people across America. Wanda’s desire to explore their culture increased when she discovered that her great-great grandparents were part of the Anabaptist faith.

All of Wanda’s novels are based on personal research intended to accurately portray the Amish way of life. Many of her books are well-read and trusted by the Amish, who credit her for giving readers a deeper understanding of the people and their customs.
