The Farm Stand by Amy Clipston
5.0
In this sweet story by Amy Clipston, duty and respect gets in the way love. Salina Petershelm's father is the bishop of her church, and her brother is a deacon. They have very high standards for Salina, including deciding who she should marry. So, durifully, Salina has dated Josiah for just about a year. But there are no sparks, no deeper feelings.
But when a Mennonite chef named William Zimmerman meets Salina, as his restaurant is next to her farm stand where she sells produce, sparks fly. However, she is dating Josiah and Will is dating another woman. How do the pair deal with growing feelings with their current circumstances
What a wonderful story. I so felt for Salina. Her emotions were palpable. Not only did she have to listen to father and obey his wishes, then constantly being compared to her brother, was just too hard for her to bear. While dealing with her family, she must take measure of her heart and decide if she really wants love in her future.
I have loved both books in this series so far and am more than pleased that two other books are coming out, The Coffee Corner this December and The Jam and Jelly Nook next May. I definitely look forward to reading those two. Amy Clipston is quickly becoming one of my favorite writers of Amish Fiction.
Many thanks to Zondervan and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
