A Man of His Word by Kathleen Fuller - My Review

I was honored to receive an advanced copy of A Man of His Word for possible endorsement.  This first book in the Hearts of Middlefield series will release later this week, and I'm thrilled to recommend it to readers.  Here's the cover blurb and my review.

  When Moriah Byler married Levi Miller, she thought they would share a long life together.  She is astonished when one day he abruptly leaves the Order, and her along with it.  Unbeknownst to Levi, Moriah is pregnant.

Moriah finds herself alone and unsure where to turn.  She's reticent about trusting her heart to anyone.  What Moriah doesn't know is that Levi's twin, Gabriel, has loved her for years, but has kept this to himself.  Grabriel is a man of his word--and a man of God's word.  After another unexpected tragedy, Moriah must learn to unguard her heart and accept his love so she can be made whole again.


My review: A wise man in the publishing industry recently told me, "There will be a lot of authors who will jump on the Amish band wagon due to the success of the genre.  However, only some of these authors will really stick and acquire a loyal following."  Well, folks...Kathleen Fuller is one of those authors.  I loved this first book in the series.  This is a page-turner with real characters who accurately portray Amish life in Middlefield, Ohio.  A beautiful story of love, loss, and one woman's ability to unguard her heart and love again.  I highly recommend A Man of His Word, and I'll be first in line to order book #2, An Honest Love.

Interesting note: the models on this cover are married in real life, and what a handsome fellow he his!
