Shannon's summer just got a whole lot more . . . Amish?
Shannon McNamara has exciting plans for the summer--getting her driver's license, a job, and more--and she can't wait to dive in. But her ill mother has plans of her own: to relocate them both to the heart of Amish country in Ohio where she has relatives who can help her.
Turns out a "simple" life is actually a lot of hard work. But when a hot young Amish guy named Ezra enters the picture, Shannon's ready to get an Amish makeover and even consider making it a permanent change. Will these plans come crashing down around her too? Or can she really make the jump into a whole new way of life?

My Review:
This was a different take on an Amish love story. I usually read about men joining the faith, or girls loving non Amish men. This is the first time that I read about a non Amish girl falling in love with an Amish boy. She was ready to change her faith and become Amish. She soon realized that she was running away from her issues. As I was reading I kept hoping that she would realize this before it was too late. Hopefully she would not hurt anyone or break any hearts along the way. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review from Revell, however all opinions are my own
