Love Blooms in Morning Star

The Maidels of Morning Star, Book 4

By: Charlotte Hubbard

Narrated by: Amy Melissa Bentley

When five unmarried Amish maidels turn a ramshackle barn into a thriving business, their small Missouri town is energized by new opportunities. But the Morning Star Marketplace has also brought unexpected joy, as each woman finds her own true love . . .

As Jo Fussner keeps the Marketplace humming, her heart dances with a joyous secret. Jo and Michael Wengerd, a shy nursery owner from a nearby town, have fallen hopelessly in love. When Michael buys a courting buggy, Jo is sure a proposal will follow. But she'll have to work hard to gain her mother's approval—because the widowed Drusilla Fussner is convinced that marriage will bring her daughter nothing but heartache.

To win Jo's hand, Michael enlists his father's help in convincing Drusilla to give the marriage her blessing—and perhaps even open her heart to new happiness of her own. . . .

But just as Jo and Michael's hope for their future grows, an even bigger obstacle looms. The Amish elders vote to forbid any maidel from working once she marries. Now Jo must choose between the beloved store she's put her heart into, and the man she can't live without. Conflicted, Jo will have to trust that anything is possible when true faith guides the way . . .

Another great read

This book is clean and wholesome while dealing with some real family issues. They were dealt with in a believable and tactful manner. I love that she redeemed Drucilla, whom I dreaded encountering in her previous book. Thank you Charlotte. Please give Nelson's twin sister a story of her own. She deserves it.

I love the love journeys

clean and sweet. I love that there is a four-part series. I'm sad to be done with them when the books are over and I love that they have a connection with seasons of the heart so that you kind of connect with all the characters in other towns. I don't like it when they're over finished. I know they're make believe but you get attached to them.

Great storyline!

Fantastic character development and although you know the storyline and how it will end, it's not predictable, nor boring.

Love Charlotte Hubbard!

Haven't met a Charlotte Hubvard book I didn't like. Her books, like this one, are always uplifting & positive.

Really enjoyed this!

I’ve listened to this entire series, and have thoroughly enjoyed the storyline, characters, and real life situations that have been portrayed. I’m not a huge fan of this narrator, partly due to the slowness of the reading, incorrect pronunciation of words, and unusual voices that were given to the various characters. However, I just increased the speed of the reading, and enjoyed the storyline. If you’re looking for wholesome, interesting stories, along with a closer look at the Amish lifestyle, I highly recommend this series.
