5-Star Review of "The Amish Firefighter"

Review of The Amish Firefighter

by Laura V. Hilton

Abigail Stutzman thought it was bad enough being dropped at the nearest bus station and sent to live several states away with some relatives she'd never even heard of, much less met. But now, just a week after her arrival in Jamesport, Missouri, she finds herself at the scene of a barn fire. An intentional barn fire. And all fingers are pointed at her. She's desperate to prove her innocence and protect her reputation, but nobody's making that easy to do. And God certainly doesn't seem willing to help.

Sam Miller is in the process of turning over a new leaf. Determined to atone for the follies of his past, he is a volunteer firefighter, an EMT, and a paramedic-in-training. With suspicious barn fires escalating, and the Miller family being among the victims, no one is more determined to see the perpetrators brought to justice than Sam. 

When their paths first cross at the site of a barn burning, the emotional intensity rivals the warms of the flames. Soon, they must decide whether this fire is one they should feed or fight. And they'll discover that the truth can prove more dangerous than a blazing inferno.

MY REVIEW:   Talk about being in the wrong place at the right time.  Poor Abigail is accused by several people in their church.  Sam, the volunteer firefighter, believes that Amanda does not do anything drastic.   Talk about fire!  There are definitely sparks that turn to flames as Sam and Abigail meet.  There are many secrets and the two are not sure they want the truth revealed.  This book will keep readers on their toes.  There are many twists and turns.  Will everything work out for Sam and Abigail?  Why did her parents send her away?  Why is God allowing Sam to think she started the fires?  Is God there? Is he listening? Does he even care?   

        I rated this book 5 stars and am delighted to recommend it readers.  

         I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.
