My Thoughts:  A Great Start to a New Series

In order to fulfill a dream she has, Rebecca (Becca) Yoder is on a mission to find a replacement for herself. Quiet and shy Gideon Fisher is the potential replacement. Training Gideon should be easy enough, except that Gideon isn't exactly crazy about staying in Shipshewana or being trained by the bossy Becca. Will these two opposites be able to overcome their differences, work together, and end up as friends or even more?

I greatly enjoyed this first book in Ms. Chapman's new series. It was an entertaining read that had some ups and downs which kept me guessing a few times. It also included some great characters that contributed much to the story. I especially enjoyed Becca's sisters and Nathan. Their contributions to the story added dimension without taking the focus off of Becca and Gideon. 

I also enjoyed how Becca and Gideon's relationship developed. They each had to make some changes to their way of thinking, their plans and a few misconceptions to make it work, and that is what made the story so special for me. I thoroughly enjoyed watching their transition and the end results.

Becca and Gideon's story is a great beginning to this new series. With a start like that, I can't wait to read what comes next.
