A Daughter's Dream

 

About The Book:  A Daughter's Dream (Avon Inspire, May 2016)  A young teacher and farmer discover they have much in common, especially when it comes to healing old wounds from the past . . . and finding love in one another.  Rebecca Kinsinger has always dreamed of being a teacher. But when she's given the opportunity she's been waiting for at Charm Amish School, she's dismayed to discover that teaching is hard work---work she's afraid she's not very good at.  That is, until Lilly Yoder joins the class. A thirteen-year old who's just lost her parents, Lilly is in need of someone like Rebecca. For the first time since starting her new job, Rebecca feels a sense of purpose. But when she meets Lilly's uncle, Jacob, his good looks and sweet, easy-going temperament are hard to ignore. How can she even entertain romantic thoughts of Jacob when his niece is her student?  Suddenly becoming Lily's sole caregiver, Jacob Yoder never thought he'd be a single parent---or a farmer. Having been living in Florida as a carpenter, Jacob feels more at home wielding a hammer than a backhoe. The only bright spot in his life is Rebecca Kinsinger. As Lily and Rebecca develop a bond, Jacob's fondness for the pretty teacher grows, too.  But when a fateful accident brings them together, Rebecca and Jacob must choose between duty and desire. Will they follow the path before them? Or set out to find true happiness . . . and true love?  Purchase a copy: http://bit.ly/20vVAye

My Thoughts On The Book:  I have loved everything I have read by Shelley Shepard Gray and now I've added another one of her books to my library. This book is not just as great as I hoped it would be, it is even better! The story is about Rebecca, who works in the family business, but always has wanted to be a teacher.  Rebecca is fortunate and gets her shot at the world of teaching and finds....I am not going to blow the story....read it and find out.
