The Promise of a Letter (Amish Letters #2)
About:
A letter brings him back to his Amish family. It will take someone truly extraordinary to make him stay.
Roman is on the verge of leaving the Amish ways. Feeling confined by the strict rules, he longs to do something more with his life. But when things don't go as planned, Roman's prospects outside of the community dwindle. Upon learning that his beloved grandmother has died and left a letter urging him to reconcile with his brother in Birch Creek, Roman decides to return home. But he doesn't plan to stay for long.
Leanna Chupp has always made her own way in her small community of Birch Creek. Though some may call her unconventional--strange, even--Leanna is happy. Her unique outlook on life has meant she's never had many suitors pursuing courtship, which Leanna doesn't mind. She is content being single.
But when Roman and Leanna find themselves working together again, everything changes. Though neither fit squarely within the strictures of the Amish faith, their differences could be the very thing to help them form a deeper connection to their community and to each other. The question remains: will this strengthening bond be enough to make Roman stay for good?

My Thoughts:
"The Promise of a Letter" is a book that you will not be able to put down. First, forgiveness is a huge issue between two brothers and you must know, I wanted to know what would happen with that situation. One brother you will grow very fond of, while the other, you might have some growing pains, but in the end maybe you'll like them both or maybe not. Not only that, but there is a Boppi.. Second, I loved the story and personality of Leanna. Her character is fantastic for this storyline and I really felt for several times as dealt with rumors, job loss and struggled. In the end, you'll love how Kathleen ties up this story. Readers learn an amazing lesson that comes out in the end. I love the concept of how a letter can translate into a novel. I cannot wait to read the other two books. I missed the first one. This is second book in the series, but can be read as a stand alone. Thank you Kathleen Fuller for providing a complimentary copy. A favorable review was not required. I give this book 5/5 stars!
