(The Prayer Jars #2)

What would happen if you found out someone has been impersonating you?
 

Sara Murray had never met her mother’s parents and was surprised to learn after her death that they were Amish living in Pennsylvania. When she is finally able to make the trip to meet them, she is shocked to learn someone else has been living with them and pretending to be Sara. Sara can’t understand how quickly her grandparents are willing to forgive the imposter.
 
Secrets and deceit seem to follow Sara, and she is so tired of it. Though soon she meets Brad Fuller who is visiting her grandparents during Christmas. She likes him a lot, but even he seems to pull away from her, not being totally honest.
 
Struggling, Sara finds an old canning jar hidden in the barn that is full of encouraging prayers. Can Sara find a way to forgive the past and move on to building new relationships?

This is Book 2 in the brand-new series, The Prayer Jars, from New York Times bestselling author Wanda E. Brunstetter.
Book 1 -- The Hope Jar (August 2018)
Book 3 -- The Healing Jar (August 2019)

MY REVIEW:
5 Stars (5/5) *****
            Are you looking for a fun, clean book to read?  This book fits the bill.   It is a book full of deception, secrets, hope, and forgiveness.   The characters are likable and well-defined.  This book includes characters from book one in The Prayer Jars series by Wanda Brunstetter.  It continues Sara's story.  The book could be read as a standalone but I personally feel that it would be more enjoyable to read book one first, The Hope Jar.
              I received a print copy of this book from the author and a digital copy from netgalley and Shiloh Run Press in exchange for my honest review.  I was not required to write a positive review.   All opinions expressed are my own.
