One woman's shattered dream...one man's second chance....and the faith that can heal broken hearts.

Ruth is the second oldest sister in the Hostettler family, and she has one burning desire---to marry and fill her Amish household with children. Life seems to be falling into place when Martin Gingerich starts to court her and she befriends a motherless child.

But her dreams are suddenly shattered in one horrific moment, putting Ruth's faith to the test. Finding herself spiritually adrift, Ruth's only real prayer becomes a desperate "God, why?"

Will Ruth find the faith and strength to rise above the ashes?



This book is better compared to the first one. And if you did not read A Sister's Secret, the first book, you need to in order to understand the situation that the family is in. With this book, keep the tissues nearby because a lot of sad events happen again, but the story flows nicely and it keeps you turning the page wanting to find out more.

And for fans of the series never fear, I know when book three is coming out. It's called A Sister's Hope and we will find out who keeps attacking the family. It comes out in July. Wanda includes your email and she actually will write you back.
