God's Grace!
I have read all of Kelly Long's Amish fiction books. Threads of Grace grabbed me from page one and held me captive until the very last page. I read this book in one day and I can honestly tell you that I usually don't read a book that fast. I literally could NOT put this book down.
Seth, Grace, Abel captured my heart. I wanted things to work out for them so bad. Little Abel was a precious little boy that touched the very core of my being.
The author shows how God can take impossible situations and make them possible. Trust, Faith, Hope, Forgiveness can be seen through out the pages of this book. BUT, the most important lesson to be learned here is God's Grace. Without it we have nothing.
I hope that there will be another book in this series. In my heart the story isn't finished; there is so much to tell yet.
This book is definitely more than a 5 star book. I wish I could give it a 10! I hope if you are reading this review that you will pick up a copy of Threads of Grace. I promise you will not be disappointed. Thank you Kelly Long for taking my heart through so many emotions.

Threads of Grace by Kelly Long
Grace Raber was a 18 year old girl with dreams for the future. But all that changed when grace was faced with the hard choose of saving her family's farm that was in debt to Silas Beiler. He would forget there debt and even help her family, but only if she married him. Then 9 years later, as a newly widowed Mother, she moved away to Pine Creek Pennsylvania. But she is followed by her former husband's evil Brother. Who will have a tight hold on her and her son if she is not married within 6 months of her husband's death, because of the will Silas left. But when Seth Wyse, a young man in Pine Creek who had been trying to get Grace's attention for months, hears about it he offers to marry her. She does need help but after her hard, sad, past could their life together ever work. I really loved this book! It must be one of the best Amish books I have ever read! It was very well written and even had a glossary of Pennsylvania Dutch words and phrases in the front of the book! You don't really know what happened in her past, instead you learn it along with the other people in the story. I think Kelly Long did a really good job with it. And with her Brother-in-law out there still trying to come up with a plan on how to get Grace, there are some twists and surprises mixed in! It was a wonderful book and I highly recommend it!
I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. The opinions are my own.

Easy to read
It was the last of the series of A Patch of Heaven and after reading the first two that made the third book Threads of Grace a must read.

Receiving God's Grace
I really enjoyed this Amish story. Could feel myself cringe at that young girl, Grace Raber, being forced into a marriage with a cruel man, Silas Beiler.
When the book opens her living hell is over, her evil husband has died. She has begun a new life in Pine Creek PA. She does now have a young son, Able, who is Autistic. While she is working in the garden, a stone wall falls on her, she sends Able to the neighbors for help. So begins the relationship of Grace and Seth.
One thing we see throughout the story is how Grace has been badly hurt, and her learning to accept love. You do see God working in all of their lives, and all they need to do is accept his Grace!
Loved Alice...we meet her again. Although she is English, you want her to stay and be part of the family. Then their is Violet Raber, Grace's younger sister. She sees what she wants and not going to be stopped.
You do feel while reading that their is evil lurking, is someone going to be hurt? Don't miss this great read, once you start you will not be able to put it down.
I received this book through Thomas Nelson's Booksneeze Blogger Program, and was not required to give a positive review.
