A Bee in Her Bonnet by Jennifer Beckstrand
My review today is on the Amish Romance, A Bee in Her Bonnet. This is the second book in The Honeybee Sisters Series. I love Jennifer's stories and was thrilled to get this one. This book is well written, humorous, and heartwarming. It will make you laugh and it will make you cry. The characters are people you will fall in love with, at least most of them. You will love this book.
Poppy Christner is the tomboy of the Honeybee sisters. She feels it's her job to protect her sister which was very difficult when they were growing up. Poppy had hit several of the boys for picking on the orphaned girls. Now she is trying to refrain from violence even though there seems to be vandals who are trying to harm them. When Poppy catches some strangers on her land she tries to see who the boys are but when she grabs the window of the car the guy rolls up the window with her hand in it. She is unable to get her hand out let alone see the guy's face through the tinted windows and then to her horror she is rescued by her arrogant, prideful neighbor Luke, a boy who has tormented her and her sister forever.
Luke Bontrager has been fighting with Poppy all of his life. He has told her she will never marry because of her unladylike behavior. He has shared with her how he likes demure submissive women. But when he sees her in trouble he runs to help her. He can't understand why she doesn't appreciate it. She won't listen to him and do what he knows is right. Suddenly things begin to change and he decides he much prefers feisty Poppy to the docile girls he has been dating. Can he convince Poppy he has changed? Will she let him help her?
This is a journey of two stubborn people who both think they are right and not about to give an inch. God has a plan for these two and it's much greater than they had dreamed. God has a plan for you too, it's a great plan and much better than you ever imagined. Give God your heart and watch Him move in your life.

Sarah's Orphans by Vanessa Chapman
My review today is on the Amish Romance, Sarah's Orphans. This is one of the Plain and Simple Miracles Series. I do enjoy Vanessa's book; they touch your heart. This book is well written, humorous, and heart warming. I know you will enjoy it. I especially liked her characters.
Sarah Yoder lost her bi-polar father after he ran off in the middle of a storm. Her mother is suffering from grief and depression. Sarah and her eldest brother are left caring for their younger siblings. They had really been the care givers of the family for years. One day Sarah almost runs over a child in her buggy. She follows him and finds a young boy caring for his sick sister. She brings them home and falls in love with these two. She takes classes to become their foster parent even though her house is full of siblings.
Paul Byler comes to Cody Creek to help care for his brother after he has a heart attack. Paul is now helping his sister-in-law run the store but dream is to have his own place. He has a chance to buy a small farm next to the Yoder farm. He heard someone in the store one night but found no one there. Someone had stolen a bottle of Children's Tylenol. He is not surprised when Sarah finds the two children hiding close to the store. He is drawn to Sarah and her family and asks her brothers to help him with his dilapidated farm.
A journey of a desperate girl trying to care for a houseful of children that she loves. Trying to understand the abandonment of her parents, and the man trying to help them as he stands by her whenever she needs him. God has a plan for this broken family and it is an awesome plan. God has a plan for you too. Turn you heart over to Him and watch Him work in your life.

Christmas at Promise Lodge by Charlotte Hubbard
My review today is on the Amish Romance, Christmas at Promise Lodge. This is the second book in the Promise Lodge Series. I was thrilled to find Charlotte had written the next book in the series as I loved the first one. Promise Lodge left me asking questions about what happens next. This book answered some of those question but I look forward to the next one to find out what happens to the rest of the community. This book is well written, humorous, and will touch your heart. You will love it.
Widow Mattie Schwartz and several others were basically verbally attack at the wedding service by the new bishop Floyd. He told the congregation that all the single and widowed men and women must marry before the first snow fall. He named them and told them he expected them to stand before him saying their wedding vows. The three Bender sisters and other women couldn't continue to run businesses they must marry and take care of their families. He also said there would be no interfaith marriages. Mattie wasn't about be forced to marry. She'd endured on abusive marriage and wouldn't have another.
Preacher Amos Troyer was disgusted. A wedding ceremony was not the place to bring up such demands. Now Mattie would never marry him. How could he convince her to share his life after this? What about the other singles in the community? Rosetta Bender and Truman Wickey, a Mennonite, were in love but now they would be unable to marry. Christine Hersberger, a widow, hardly knew Marlin Kurtz how could the bishop expect them to marry. The three sisters had founded the Promise Lodge and were not about to give it over to some man.
A struggle of these two hearts and their community when some man tries to be God in their new district. God has a plan for this new colony and He doesn't care what a bishop has to say. This is a great story and brings to mind the scripture that says 'Judge not lest you be judged.' God has a plan for you too. Give God your heart and let Him turn your mess around.
