Book Review: Leah's Choice

Leah's Choice: Pleasant Valley Book OneLeah’s Choice: Pleasant Valley Book One by Marta Perry

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am a lover of Amish-themed books. I am interested in their lifestyle, and one can learn of their beliefs and lifestyle while being entertained when they read Amish fiction.

Leah’s Choice was a good book.

Leah is a school-teacher who never married, because her beau left the faith. She never go over that and was committed to living as a spinster. Things change when Daniel Glick and his family move to their community. She finds herself drawn to Glick, but her former boyfriend appears on the scene. The choice that Leah must make is to remain Amish and possibly never marry, or leave to marry John.

Meanwhile Glick is battling with his own choices. He has a background, heartaches, fears, and yet he finds himself falling for Leah.

The reader will have to get the book to learn what happens, as I shall not spoil it for him/her.

Marta Perry writes a good book. Her style and abilities do not quite measure up to those of Beth Wiseman and Beverly Lewis, but she has done a very good job.

Lovers of Amish fiction will find themselves enjoying this book.
