Book Description:
With a love built on faith, no dream is impossible...
Jeannie Graber is grateful for her life in Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania. Her job in the family fabric shop allows her to contribute and also to set aside a little nest egg for the future. Still, she can't help wishing for a bit more. So when the idea comes to her to remodel a storeroom into a sewing studio where she can give lessons, she sets out to prove that she is a capable woman and no longer the flighty girl no one takes seriously. But she'll need help getting her dream off the ground.
Matthew Fisher works in his brother's construction business, but he has dreams of his own. He's good with a hammer and nails, but he's even better with drafting tools. When Jeannie Graber, whom he's loved from afar for years, asks him to design and build her business space, he understands that Gott has given him a gift: a chance to prove himself to his brother and, more importantly, to Jeannie.
But when a beloved elderly woman disappears from the community, Jeannie and Matthew are determined to bring her home safely. As they work side by side, faith and friendship blossom into something deeper. But will old insecurities keep them apart, or will they finally trust Gott―and each other―with their hearts?
My Thoughts: Fantastic!
A Heart to Cherish is a fantastic blend of romance, faith, and mystery. It follows Jeannie and Matthew, and although they have known each other since childhood, they were never close. A plan that Jeannie comes up with flips the switch on their relationship. As they navigate these new waters, they confront a mystery that adds another dimension to their relationship. Through it all, they each must overcome feelings of doubt and not being good enough for others, which are a bit of a stumbling block.
This perfect combination of love, faith, intrigue, and overcoming makes A Heart to Cherish a lovely story that I highly recommend.
