The Waiting - Reviewed

She was waiting for love--and found it in the most unexpected place.

Jorie King's life is on hold. She has been waiting for Ben Zook to return to Lancaster County. Waiting for him to settle down and join the church. Waiting to marry him.

But when news arrives that Ben has been killed, Jorie is devastated. She finds unlikely comfort in the friendship of his brother Caleb. Friendship ripens into love, and two broken hearts plan for a life filled with the promise of a fresh beginning--until their worlds are turned upside down.

With her realistic characters whose weaknesses develop into strengthens, Suzanne Woods Fisher offers a reading experience that rises above the others. You will love growing in spirit with these complex people living the simple life as The Waiting transports you into a world where things aren't as simple as they seem.

My Take: Seems as Jorie has been doing nothing but waiting on Ben and just when it seems like all of her dreams are going to come true she finds out that Ben has been killed and her whole world crumbles, or does it. Just when you think you know what is going to happen in the Amish world, turn the page and it spins on a dime. This is another page turner that you just can't put down! I highly recommend it!
