Warm and uplifting, Rosalind Lauer welcomes readers back to Joyful River, Pennsylvania, a faith-filled Amish community living side-by-side with the English world and overcoming culture clashes with compassion, love, and abiding trust in Gott's plan...       Caught in a love triangle, can a dairy farmer draw on his faith to show the woman he loves that he's the better match?     For Sam Lapp, every day spent working on his family's dairy farm is a reminder of Gott's bounty and goodness. And he's found the person he wants to share that life with. Sam remembers the exact moment he stopped seeing Sadie Beiler as just his sister's best friend, and saw instead the graceful, loving woman she's become. If only he had seen it before Sadie began courting someone else...     When Sadie first caught the eye of a handsome auctioneer, she felt blessed, hopeful that marriage would provide an escape from her troubled home. But as months stretch on without a proposal, Sadie discovers a worrying new side to her beau-and a growing kinship with Sam. Thoughtful, hardworking, kind to his visiting English cousins and to her, Sam shows Sadie that real love is just a stone's throw away. But when an unexpected obstacle forces a separation between them, can steadfast faith make Sadie an Amish bride at last?

Universal Product Code (UPC check)

Sadie Beiler and Sam Lapp have been friends for years.  However, that begins to change when Sam starts seeing Sadie as more than just his sister's best friend.  From that point on, Sam sees Sadie as the person he wants in his future.  This is all good and well except that Sadie happens to be courting Mark, and she still sees Sam as her best friend's brother. That is, until one day, she begins to see Sam as more.  

Sam and Sadie's journey from friends to more than friends comes with some difficult challenges. While they navigate through their challenges, other characters from the story have their own journeys to navigate.  However, the main characters' story remains at the forefront while the secondary characters' stories are intertwined, adding to the story without taking over. 

I absolutely loved An Amish Bride! It was sweet, intriguing, and inspiring. It brought up some difficult topics, but the author addressed each one flawlessly. Throughout the story are the messages of faith, love and God's will. Although this is the first book I've read by author Rosalind Lauer, it definitely will not be the last. Check it out for yourself and you'll understand why.

Loved It!

walmart.com

I loved my return visit Joyful River, and I sure wasn't disappointed, what a page-turner.

This book begins with the wedding, and the realization that you don't always see what is right before your eyes, but there is also something that we don't expect in an Amish Community.

There are some tough subjects that the author brings to light, and some hard times for those who want to be together, and we are along as we journey to the truth, and hope for the future.

Now with some still unanswered questions, I am hoping for future reads!

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.

Amish Romance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

An Amish Bride by Rosalind Lauer is the second novel in Joyful River series.  While An Amish Bride could be read as a standalone, I believe it is best to read An Amish Homecoming first.  I thought An Amish Bride was well-written with developed characters.  Miriam Lapp is my favorite.  She is such a sweet woman who will not hesitate to meddle if it helps those she loves.  The story is engaging with a good flow and pacing.  We get to know Sadie Beiler and Sam Lapp.  Sadie is best friends with Essie Lapp, Sam's younger sister.  Sadie spent her spare time in the Lapp household and considers it her second home.  Sam had always seen Sadie as a sister until she blossomed into a beautiful woman.  He finds that she is kind, gentle, and compassionate.  Sam would like to court Sadie, but he hesitated too long.  Sadie is now going with Mark Miller, but Sam is worried because he knows that Mark has a dark side.  When Mark goes out of town without telling Sadie, she begins to question their relationship.  She spends more time at the Lapp home and finds something unexpected.  An Amish Bride by Rosalind Lauer is a sweet story.  We get to follow the day-to-day life of the Amish.  It is amazing how rules differ between church districts.  I would have a hard time letting men make decisions for me.  The Amish are bound by the rules set forth by the Bishop and the elders.  Sadie must follow a ruling of the elders and learns how difficult it is to obey yet remain faithful.  We get to catch up with the characters from An Amish Homecoming.  They three sisters have been staying with the Lapp family for a year now and have a different perspective than when they arrived.  A trip home sheds light on the differences between the two homes.  The girls need to make decisions about their future.  Isaac, Sam's cousin, is making some hard decisions.  He likes using his medical knowledge to help people and wants to continue doing so in the future.  Isaac will need to make a choice between a higher education and being baptized in the Amish faith.  I did find the book a little long and I would have liked less repetition.   Some details are repeated twice or more.  I enjoyed reading An Amish Bride.  It is a great diversion from reality.  I hope there will be another tale in the Joyful River series.  An Amish Bride is a tender tale with a weepy wedding, strep throat sadness, a boorish beau, a firm friend, a disappointing decision, a meddling mother, and a happy house.

A heartwarming Amish tale!
