What's the book about:
New from bestselling authors Mindy Starns Clark and Susan Meissner, The
Amish Blacksmith (Book 2 in The Men of Lancaster County series) explores
the men of an Amish community in Lancaster County, how their Amish beliefs play
out in their unique roles, and the women who change their lives.
Apprenticed blacksmith Jake Miller is skeptical of Priscilla Kinsinger’s innate ability to soothe troubled horses, especially when he has own ideas on how to calm them. Six years earlier, Priscilla’s mother died in an awful accident at home, and Priscilla’s grief over losing her mother was so intense that she was sent to live with relatives in Indiana. She has just returned to Lancaster County.
Not that her homecoming matters to Jake, who is interested in courting lighthearted Amanda Shetler. But Jake’s boss is Priscilla’s uncle, and when the man asks Jake to help his niece reconnect with community life, he has no choice but to do just that. Surprisingly, he finds himself slowly drawn to the beautiful but emotionally wounded Priscilla.
Jake then determines to prove to her that it’s not her fault her mother died, but what he discovers will challenge everything they both believe about the depth of love and the breadth of forgiveness.

My Thoughts on the book:
I have to say I really like this book, The interaction with each and everyone of the characters is really amazing. I am not one who likes so much detail that it takes away from the storyline its self. At first I felt that this book was heading that way, there is a lot of details but the more I read on I felt like everyone of those details make since in the end. The book is intense at times but it just make you keep wanting to read on to see what is going to happen. I really had a hard time putting the book down it was a really fun storyline. Also it teaches you a little bit about the Amish, I just love the simple life of the Amish and to get loss into the simpleness of there lives even if its just fiction its fun. This book is worth the read as well as worth the buy, from the beginning of the book to the end of the book it grabs you and holds you there. If you are looking for a fun book the you will not want to put down this would be the book. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
