An Amish Mother’s Secret Past by Jo Ann Brown is the 3rd novel in Green Mountain Blessings series. Each book in this series can be read as a standalone. I liked that this was a unique Amish novel. It is always a delight to visit Evergreen Corners where Amish, Mennonite, and Englisch volunteers are working to rebuild the town that was devastated by Hurricane Kevin. Rachel Yoder is a widow with two young girls. She has returned to her Amish roots in the hopes of providing the girls with a stable life. Rachel does not want anyone to know about her past. Isaac Kauffman is an Amishman leading the building of the new homes. He finds himself drawn to Rachel and believes she would make the perfect Amish wife. Rachel knows she is not the right woman for Isaac, but fate keeps bringing them together. She finds herself falling for Isaac knowing that they cannot be together. What happens when Rachel’s past comes to light? I enjoyed reading An Amish Mother’s Secret Past. It has realistic, developed characters. I loved Rachel’s little girls. They are such sweethearts (at times). The author made them act like real life children. Rachel and Isaac both have troubled childhoods. It reflects on the choices they have made and the decisions they continue to make. A person from Rachel’s past visits, and it upsets her family’s world. It is nice to see Evergreen Corners coming back to life. These wonderful volunteers have rebuilt a town. I think it is wonderful that people will take time out from their home and work to assist others in their time of need. I like that we get to catch up with the characters from An Amish Christmas Promise and An Amish Easter Wish. The romance progressed at a nice pace, and I like that Isaac included the children. There is a chance for Rachel and Isaac to overcome the past and have a bright future together (if they are brave enough). This is a sweet, heartwarming story that is enjoyable to read. I am looking forward to reading An Amish Holiday Family which is the 4th Green Mountain Blessings Novel. My favorite line from the book is, “Everything is possible when we give our lives and our hearts over to God.” An Amish Mother’s Secret Past is a special Amish tale with cute kids, a bossy brother, helping hands, tasty treats, husband hunting, and a surprising secret.
