HOME TO STAY book review

Home To Stay
(A Little Child Shall Lead Them #2)
by Loree Lough

Book Description:
In the New Order Amish community of Pleasant Valley, a helping hand is never far away, and a baby's smile can be reason enough to start over--and risk love again . . .

Since losing his family in a tragic accident, building contractor Max Lambright can't seem to find purpose in anything but hard work . . . until he meets feisty newcomer, Willa Richards. As she struggles to make a new life for herself and her baby girl, she challenges him in just about every possible way. Dare he hope that, alongside this spirited woman, he might rekindle his lost faith, and find the path to love and the family he craves?

Poor choices and a difficult past have inspired Willa to make better decisions for her precious Frannie, even if it means leaving the familiar behind and starting over . . . among strangers. As she adapts to the Amish ways, she learns about Max's generous and steadfast nature. The loneliness he tries so hard to mask can't be hidden . . . not from a woman with something to prove: Together, they can build their friendship into something that will forever stand as the cornerstone of a happy family . . .

MY REVIEW:
5 Stars: 5/5 Star Rating Scale
         Who can resist a darling little baby? Not Max Lambright, that's for sure and certain!  Willa develops feelings for Max too, but her adorable baby, Frannie, isn't all that there is to consider.  There's a rather BIG thing to consider, in fact. Max is Amish and Willa is not.  She is living with an Amish couple to help them with the wife, who is suffering from depression, but she is still not Amish and any real relationship between them would be impossible. UNLESS Willa converts and becomes Amish also.  
        What will happen?  So many factors are conspiring to keep Willa and Max apart.   This is such an uplifting story though and I think that readers will love it just as much as I did!  Happy Reading!
I received a digital ARC of this from netgalley and Zebra Publishing. All opinions expressed are my own.
