A Dream of Miracles by Ruth Reid


Amish widow Mattie vows never to love again . . . until a suspicious outsider with a shadowy past comes crashing into her fragile world.

Mattie Diener can barely keep it together. A young Amish widow and mother of two young children, she faces the lingering heartbreak of lost love, her son’s mysterious illness, and a torrent of accusations that threaten to undo her.

Bo Lambright is a fast-rising social services investigator whose high-society mother won’t rest until she finds his Mrs. Right. Despite Bo’s worldly success, the raw ache of a shadowy past and a series of unsettling dreams have left him reeling.

When Mattie and Bo cross paths, all signs point to disaster. Yet as they face a crucible of trials and tragedies together, longings begin to stir that seem destined only to end in more heartbreak. Is a miracle possible—not only of healing but of forbidden love? What secrets lie in Bo’s dreams? And will Mattie find the courage to face her uncertain future . . . or will she simply run away?

Here is what I thought...........
  I absolutely loved this book! I stayed up all night reading it.  I couldn't put it down.  It is some of the best Amish fiction i have read in a while.  This story is very realistic and believable.  I would have never thought of some of the situations taking place in this book but they are very much something that could happen to the Amish.  I loved all the characters in the book.  Each one was a perfect addition to the book.  The surprises that happen at the end were very well done.  Although, I did have somewhat of an idea what the twist was about 3/4s of the way through.  An absolutely fabulous book that is sure to please, both Amish fiction lovers and those who aren't.  I received this book from the fiction guild. A positive review wasn't required.  All opinions are my own.
