Book Review: The Letters by Suzanne Woods FIsher

Rose Schrock's life has been turned upside-down since her husband's death. Living with her ailing and disapproving mother-in-law while trying to take care of her family is hard enough. Trying to also come up with a way to support them financially while also dealing with the troubles her husband left behind is just enough to make her feel like giving up.
But hope comes in some strange forms for Rose. One, being her kind but quiet neighbor Galen. The other being a strange idea to open her home as a bed and breakfast.
What Rose could not have imagined is how much opening her home up would bring healing both to herself and her guests.

I always look forward to reading Suzanne Woods Fisher's stories. I don't always stop to think about how the amish community mixes with the modern day world and what that looks like on a daily basis. I love that she combines the two in a realistic way. Her characters are far from perfect and face realistic challenges and I think it makes her stories come to life. I also love that Jimmy Fisher from a previous series makes an appearance again :-)
