About the book
Second Chance At Love
Amish widow
Hannah Yoder never intended to marry again. Yet when her friendship with
veterinarian Albert Hartman begins to bloom into something more, Hannah
wonders if perhaps she's finally ready for a new love. Albert waited
his whole life to find the right woman, only to realize Hannah was there
all along. But there's more than their friendship to consider. Albert
is a Mennonite, born-and-bred, and Hannah cannot—will not—leave her
Amish faith, not even for him. Does Albert have the courage to give up
his modern life for Hannah…and will Hannah have the courage to let him?

My Review
“Hannah's Courtship”
by Emma Miller is her latest book in her series 'Hannah's Daughters',
and I am not entirely sure if it is the last book in the series or
not. I sure hope not for I still want to see Dorcas find her happy
ending.
There is also a wrap up
of a story that has been developing over the last several books since
“Redeeming Grace” and I just loved the wrap up that is for sure.
It is not always easy knowing how to let go of someone who is so
precious to us, but this is something that needs to be worked out in
the book. To discover that maybe one has been holding too tightly
without seeing the whole picture is something so many can relate to,
and here it is no different. When the discovery is made and the
realization that maybe things are not as they seem to one person,
something beautiful happens. I know that there may be some people
who think that what happens shouldn't happen at all but I found it to
be the most beautiful form of love.
To watch Hannah, who has
been the mother to so many who have gotten married, fall in love with
the least expected person was an interesting thing to see. Things
are not easy just because Hannah is a bit older, but it seems as if
she has to make even harder choices than any of her daughters had to
do. She knew that there was one thing that she would never do
regardless what she would have to give up, and though that caused her
some pain it also made her who she is.
Albert is a man who seems
to be searching for something and seems to be a bit blind to what he
was needing. Well maybe saying he was a bit blind is a tad harsh
since he was quite familiar with the hurdles and didn't think
anything could work so he held himself back. Albert is also a man
who though made up his mind was also seeking counsel from others who
mattered so much to him, which showed that he was willing to listen
to others. Also he is a man who is honorable for he didn't want to
do anything disrespectful and when he slipped up in crossing a line
by accident he felt so bad for it, even though it was just a little
thing, he still felt so bad for crossing that line.
I can't wait to be taken
back to Seven Poplars in the future for there is Dorcas who needs to
find her own happy ending. Dorcas for all her faults is a character
who has touched me several times through out the series and she
deserves her happy ever after soon. There are also some interesting
new characters who are introduced in this book that I see by Emma
Miller's Goodreads book list, are going to continue in a new series.
I will continue to wait for Dorcas' happy ending while gladly and
cheerfully reading the books in between that time.
I hope all who read this
book enjoys it as much as I did.
