Very predictable plotline, no surprises here, but having said that, I still found the book very readable and satisfying. Likeable, compassionate characters, well written and I look forward to the next book in the series.

This book reminds you tomorrow isn't promised. That any given day may be your last. So do "it " today. Life is hard and when secrets are left and there is only questions...Life is harder.
Amy Clipston is a wonderful writer.

I enjoyed this second installment of the Kauffman Amish Bakery series for the most part. Sarah is a young widow pregnant with twins, and grieving her husband's death. A relative of her husband, Luke, comes to town to check on him, except Sarah was told her husband was an orphan. The misunderstandings piled on from there. I get that Sarah was grieving, but the whining was overdone. I found several distracting repetitive phrases sprinkled throughout the book. I hope the third book is better, because I like the storyline of the series and will continue reading for that reason.

A "Promise of Hope" was a very fast read, couldn't seem to put it down. But would advise you to read "A Gift of Grace" by Amy Clipston first. Although this book A Promise of Hope was easy to get the message.
Sarah just finds out that she is pregnant and her husband Peter dies in a tragic fire-leaving her expecting twins.She is so upset until Peters brother Luke comes to visit not Knowing that Peter had died or that he had a wife period, much less twins on the way. Peter told Sarh that he had no family and failed to tell her he had had an out of wedlock baby during Rumspringa with an English girl. Sarah is very upset with Luke when she finds these things out. Sarh delivers twins on Christmas and Luke fall in love with the twins and Sarah. But it does not progress so simply.This is an excellent story.
