The Preacher's Son

The Infamous Amish, Book 1

By: Patricia Johns

Narrated by: Michael Kirby, Avie Paige

In this poignant new series, Patricia Johns introduces an Amish family striving to reclaim the promise of love, marriage, and community after a shocking change in circumstance. Her sensitive storytelling and realistically flawed, yet endearing characters bring depth and heart to this tender story about faith and second chances, as a young man and woman.

The Amish residents of Bountiful, Pennsylvania, are stunned when preacher Abe Yoder is imprisoned for fraud. For Abe's son, Isaiah, the news cuts doubly deep. His daet's misdeeds have cost Isaiah his family's land and their good name. To support his sisters, he takes a job in the Glick family's book-binding shop, though it means working alongside a woman who has every reason to resent him. Yet, his attraction to Bethany Glick's beauty and warmth is undimmed....

Isaiah's daet's actions helped drive Bethany's fiancé to the Englischer world and cost her own father his savings. Their shop is in need of Isaiah's brawn and skill, but if she's to start over after heartbreak, she needs a man she can trust. Not a Yoder. But Isaiah isn't giving up so easily. And when Bethany faces a dilemma, there may be a way for each to find not just redemption, but a joyful new love....

Speaking

Why is the narrator talking so weird??? That’s what ruined the whole story for me…the way he’s reading

Narrators sucked

The story was probably good but I couldn’t get past the people narrating the book. I have read several others from the same author and they have been really good but when you have people like these reading it to you it is awful.

My Musings

Well a bit disappointed in this book. The characters keep rehashing over and over again the same things. I debated for months on whether I wanted to use one of my precious credits. Oh, well when one reads/listens to as many books as I do, it’s understandable that a few may not meet my expectations. The narrator is good. Happy reading and listening!
