**This is the final book in the series. If you have not read A Time to Love & A Time to Heal, you may not want to read this**
I am going to start my review/summary off a little different. I think it’s important to know a little bit about the characters in this book and how they came about. I am going to briefly summarize the first two books to ensure you are not lost when it comes to the final book.
A Time to Love (Quilts of Lancaster County #1)
In this book, we are introduced to Jennie King, a writer who was severely injured overseas, her grandmother Phoebe, and her first love Matthew Bontrager. After being involved in a horrific accident, Jennie goes to stay with her Amish grandmother to recuperate. While she is there, he re-unites with an old flame whose wife has passed away. Can/will there two lives become one? Can Jennie overcome her injuries she has sustained? To find out read: A Time to Love.
A Time to Heal (Quilts of Lancaster County #2)
Matthews sister Hannah wonders if she will ever find love. Christopher Matlock comes to Lancaster hoping to find Jennie, a woman he met when they both were recovering. Little did Hannah and Christopher know that they were about to find each other. You can imagine the surprise when someone from his past comes to haunt him and the one he falls in love with. To find out what happens read: A Time to Heal
A Time for Peace (Quilts of Lancaster County #3)
If you have already read the first two books, than you already know that Jennie and Matthew were married. You also know that Hannah and Christopher were married as well. In this final book, Hannah is pregnant and expecting her first child. Jennie, wanting a child of her own, is disappointed every month when it turns out that she is NOT pregnant. She knew this could happen. The extent of her injuries could have caused her to be infertile. She is battling emotions of her sister-in-law expecting her first child and wanting one of her own. One day while caring for her ill grandmother, Jennie stumbles upon a letter. Knowing that she shouldn’t read it, she decided to anyway. The letter was from her father. After reading it, she wishes she had just left it alone because what’s inside; has her questioning everything she has ever known. Will Jennie and Matthew be able to overcome this obstacle? Will Jennie have her one wish come to, the wish to have a baby of her own? To find out read: A Time for Peace.
This book kept me wanting to read more! I could sympathize with Jennie wanting a child of her own. My husband and I are having difficulties ourselves and its frustrating. I love the bond between all of the characters. I loved seeing them grow from one book to the next. Not only did this book make me laugh, but I also shed a few tears. It’s amazing how both Jennie and Christopher changed their lives to be with the ones they love. It amazes me how strong the family ties can be within the Amish Community.
I rate this book 5/5!
