Her Fear (The Amish of Hart County #5)
In New York Times bestselling author Shelley Shepard Gray’s latest novel of suspense in her Amish of Hart County series, an EMT falls for a woman with ties to an Amish community where people are dying similar, suspicious deaths
Sadie Detweiler never imagined she’d move to Kentucky, yet here she is: a pregnant, unmarried Amish girl banished by unforgiving parents to live with kin she barely knows. The men are gruff and her cousins are secretive. Worst of all, elderly matriarch Verba becomes mysteriously ill shortly after Sadie moves in. When EMT Noah Freeman arrives, Sadie immediately notices he’s unlike any other Amish man she’s met. Noah is warm, confident, and has an easy way with practically everyone in the community, both Amish and English. Though Sadie is drawn to him, she has little hope he will reciprocate her feelings once he learns she’s with child.
Noah can’t understand how a girl as sweet and lovely as Sadie ended up sleeping on a cot in Verba Stauffer’s kitchen. He also senses Sadie is terrified of something. Concerned, he checks up on her. Eventually they strike up a friendship and soon their attraction is undeniable. When Verba later dies at the hospital and her death is followed by two others, Noah’s boss wants him to dig around the Amish community for clues. He agrees—for Sadie’s sake—because only the truth will keep her safe and by his side.
Her Fear by Shelley Shepard Gray is not a typical amish read, but better. I love this entire series and this is the 5th book in the The Amish of Hart County series. While it can be read as a stand alone, I highly recommend reading the entire series. You will enjoy each book and the characters. Shelley Shepard does a fantastic job at bringing the characters to life and bringing the reader into the story.
Her Fear deals with subject matters that are delicate and emotional, an unplanned pregnancy, abandonment, family difficulties, lies and so much more. This book is such a great read. The writing is phenomenal with the plot twists and turns, which made reading this book go rather quickly I could not put this book down because of how my emotions took over when reading this book.
I highly recommend grabbing a copy today and reading it! You won't be able to put it down. I give this book 5/5 stars. This was such a great read, make sure you pick up the entire series.
I live in southern Ohio with my husband, two teenagers, and two dogs. My days are filled with busy activities like most any other mom and housewife. But I also love to write books.
Each morning, after my kids go off to school, I sit at my desk, look out my window, and dream of other places. The hours fly by as I make up people and places and drink way too much coffee.
Writing for Avon Inspire has truly been a dream come true. Being able to spend my days in my make-believe world of the Brenneman Bed and Breakfast is a true blessing. I have enjoyed getting to know more about the Amish culture and tapping into my faith as I show each character’s progression toward a personal relationship with our Lord.
