Seek Me with All Your Heart

By Beth Wiseman

What would cause the Amish to move to Colorado, leaving family and friends behind?

Some Amish are making the trek to Colorado for cheaper land. Others are fleeing strict bishops with long memories.

For Emily Detweiler and her family, the move is more personal. Tragedy struck Emily in Ohio, shaking loose everything she believed was firm, including her faith. Her family took the bold step of leaving Ohio to resettle in a small Amish community in Canaan, Colorado, where they hope the distance will help erase painful memories.

David Stoltzfus's family moved to Colorado for reasons he doesn't understand. But Canaan is turning out to be something other than the promised land they all anticipated. Fearing that a health condition will cut his life short, David plans to return home to Paradise, Pennsylvania, as soon as he can. But then he meets Emily, who stirs feelings in his heart despite his apprehension about the future.

Emily's growing love for David surprises her, but she fears that he will find out the truth about her past and reject her. But what if the truth is that they are made for each other? And that God longs to give them the desires of their hearts if only they will seek Him first?

I LOVED this novel! Beth Wiseman's writing is STUNNING and quickly captures me everytime. While I've read her novellas in An Amish Christmas, An Amish Gathering, and An Amish Love, I have been anxiously awaiting a new series from her. I read her series, Daughters of the Promise, and fell in love instantly. I just can't ever get enough Beth Wiseman novels! I was in for a real treat, though, when I started reading this sweet read. I got to visit with long time friends, Samuel, Lillian and David Stoltzfus, whom I met when reading Plain Perfect! Sweet David and Emily's characters were wonderful. My heart was instantly captured by them. Both of them, though, had issues to deal with from the past that they needed to overcome. Reading their stories and watching them grow in their faith together, as they sought Him with all their hearts, was a heart warming, and eye opening, experience. Beth Wiseman did a great job at using that message- seeking Him with all their hearts- for not only Emily and David, but also sweet Katie Ann and even the cranky ol' Martha's character! I was completely fascinated with the way it all blended so well, yet left Emily and David the center of the story. This is at the top of my Amish novel recommendations list. Hands down, it's a 5 star novel and a perfect start to the Land of Canaan series. While I was sad to see the story end, I'm happily, anxiously awaiting the release of the second Land of Canaan novel!

It took quite awhile for me to become interested in this book. It seemed to drag until almost the end. I was disappointed since Wiseman's books are always a great read.
