Steadfast Mercy

Jonica Muller has to go to Posen, Michigan, to settle her father's estate, because both her parents died in a tragic accident.  When she gets to Posen, her aenti Edna is rather scattered in her memory and kind of wants to sell the farm and move in with her older sister who "needs help." Edna asked Caleb, who is working Edna's farm, to pick up Jonica and her five-year-old son.    The only problem was that Caleb was the brother of her son's father.  She truly wanted nothing to do with Caleb, until he started helping Jonica with Stephen's health issues.

This is a deeper plot than I usually read in Amish fiction.  Ruth Reid's talent in bringing a compelling and engaging story is above the norm.  I truly enjoyed this book so much that I had a really hard time putting it down.

This is a five-star book, with two thumbs up, and favorable medical results.

Thomas Nelson and NetGalley.com provided the copy I read for this review.  The opinions expressed are my own.
