The Bridesmaid is more than just a story about a young woman who cant find love in her future, its a story of trust and faith that Gods best is more wonderful than anything we can orchestrate in our own control.

I will have to admit here at the start of my review, that Ive been a bit disappointed with the last couple books Ive read by this author. Im afraid this title failed to sweep me into the Amish world as previous titles have. While a love story is always timeless, I think the plot moved too slowly to truly capture meand I confess to skimming.

Ive loved many of the Amish books in the past, several series fill my keeper shelves, but this title and the one preceding it havent entertained me as I expected them too.

I can say I thought the uniqueness of Joanna and Ebens interests made them different in the genre of Amish fiction and how they overcame their struggles to triumphs was fulfilling.

I am truly sorry to say this book disappointed me. Its with no malice, only grievance that I say as much and I hopeI know there will be other readers more taken than me.

This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers through CFBA for an ARC to review.
