Amish Midwives and Secrets

Leah is Old Order Amish, but she's working to get certification as a midwife.

Kyle used to be Amish until an accident several years ago.  Now he is a doctor and the doctor from his little home town wants him to come back and take over his practice.

There are problems with being Old Order and getting a certification as a midwife.  The Ordnung does not allow it.

Kyle doesn't like the way Leah treats her patients with herbs and sweet words.  Leah doesn't like his bullying ways.

Rachel J Good has written a sassy book taking place in the Amish world.  Leah isn't afraid to stand up to Kyle and reintroduce him to the world of the Amish.  Both Kyle and Leah have their own secrets and want to tell each other, but they dance around the words they need to say to get their points across.  This book has happy moments, sad moments, and everything in between all woven into one cohesive story that is hard to put down.

Five Stars, Two Thumbs Up, and a good doctor to argue with.

My thanks to Hachette Books and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book.
