All He'll Ever Need

Loree Lough writes all kinds of fiction, but this Amish fiction that she has written is a great read. All He'll Ever Need tells the story of an Amish widower with a sickly son and an Englisch Doctor with incredible diagnostic knowledge. 

When four year old Gabe Baker passes out while he's with his dad, Phillip, at the hardware store, an ambulance is called, and Gabe is taken to the hospital to undergo tests and to find out what is actually wrong with him. Once Emily, the doctor, finds the diagnosis, she makes the arrangements to transfer Gabe to a bigger hospital where another doctor can do the surgery Gabe needs.

The longer Phillip and Emily are together, the closer they become, and the more Phillip's mother objects.  Emily is not Amish and that creates a conflict for Phillip's mother.

While Gabe is having his surgery, Emily has to face her past in the face of Alex, the surgeon working on Gabe.

I love books with happy endings, and this one has one of the happiest, in spite of some episodes of sadness in the book.  This is a five star book, with two thumbs up, and a sliding scale clinic with quality health care.

I want to thank Kensington Books and NetGalley.com for providing the galley I read for this review.
