MY THOUGHTS.....
This book wraps up the Secrets of Willow Springs trilogy, and what a conclusion it is! Author Tracy Fredrychowski pulls out all of the punches to share Daniel Miller's story in book 3, and I found myself experiencing many of the emotions that a well-written story can evoke. Sadness, surprise, and even shock, as I realized why Daniel was going down a certain path. The bitterness that he felt toward a family member, a painful secret that he'd kept locked inside, and the way that he coped with it all. Was it right? Is excessive alcohol use ever the answer? Certainly not, but the delicate subjects of excessive drinking and child abuse are handled with extreme care. Fredrychowski shows that forgiveness is possible, and redemption can be achieved, when we allow God to work in our lives.
"If you want me to forgive, you'll need to put it on my heart because you know it's hard. I don't want to be angry anymore."
All three books in this series have been intriguing and inspiring, and it's apparent that this author knows and appreciates the Amish way of life. She understands that Amish people experience pain and heartache, and their struggles are no different than anyone else. Secrets of Willow Springs 3 is a wonderful story of love, hope, trust, and forgiveness, and I recommend it to all who enjoy Christian fiction.
I accepted a complimentary e-book from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review and I am voluntarily sharing my own thoughts.
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
