In this story, Alejandro and Amanda are in a different stage of their relationship and must reevaluate what is important to them. I wanted to shake Amanda at times and say “Girl get a life,” The plot was very good and had a twist that I didn’t see coming.
Many thanks to Waterfall Press and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

I really wanted to love this series but I just can’t. I couldn’t finish reading this one, very disappointed.

I just can't like the husband anymore, and the wife I just can't like either. She's literally stuck where she is. She can't go home because she's been shunned by now I'm guessing, and the husbands life is just too different from what she was originally from. I want to like and enjoy this story, I just can't anymore.

Plain Return by Sarah Price is a wonderful Amish romance. It is the fourth book in the Plain Fame series but can be read as a stand-alone.
I really loved catching up with familiar characters. Once again Sarah Price's comprehensive descriptions mean the reader really 'experiences' the landscapes.
God is at the heart of the novel. Faith and trust in His plans are at the forefront. We have to trust that He knows what He's doing especially when we cannot see the way.
Life needs to be done in partnership with God. Building a relationship with Him is important, as is talking to Him in prayer.
The novel shows the conflict between the world and the Amish way. "She straddled the fence between plain and worldly." The Amish way brings peace and contentment. The world is seen to be manipulative, self seeking and lacking in morals. The world seeks to corrupt the Amish way of thinking. The reader witnesses the conflict and hopes for a peaceful solution.
Family and stability are important. Love binds us together. Children are a gift from God. They need love and peace and kindness to blossom. Every child is planned by God even if not by people.
I really enjoyed Plain Return. The novel was warm and welcoming. This is a cracking series.
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.

There we're many things in this book that spoke to my heart, reminding me of God's love and grace towards me. I was reminded by Amanda quoting scripture that when I was a child I thought like a child ... then she used the example of of a butterfly, knowing it can never go back into the crysalis. It was a poig b ant reminder that I ask a new creature in Jerusalem and he sees me as beautiful.
There are some wonderful moments when the author takes you back to God in a gentle manner. Very inspiring
