Her Secret by Shelley Shepard Gray Book Review
March 27, 2017
The Amish of Hart
County—with this suspenseful tale of a young Amish woman who is forced to move
to a new town to escape a threatening stalker.
After a stalker went too far, Hannah Hilty and her family had no choice but to leave the bustling Amish community where she grew up. Now she’s getting a fresh start in Hart County, Kentucky…if only she wasn’t too scared to take it. Hannah has become afraid to trust anyone—even Isaac, the friendly Amish man who lives next door. She wonders if she'll ever return to the trusting, easy-going woman she once was.
For Isaac Troyer, the beautiful girl he teasingly called “The Recluse” confuses him like no other. When he learns of her past, he knows he's misjudged her. However, he also understands the importance of being grateful for God’s gifts, and wonders if they will ever have anything in common. But as Hannah and Isaac slowly grow closer, they realize that there’s always more to someone than meets the eye.
Just as Hannah is finally settling into her new life, and perhaps finding a new love, more secrets are revealed and tragedy strikes. Now Hannah must decide if she should run again or dare to fight for the future she has found in Hart County.
My thoughts:
There is nothing better than curling up to a good book. Shelley Shepard Gray has done it again. The story plot was so good. I loved the suspense with this page turner.
The characters have so much depth to them. I can say that about all of her books she just makes them feel like your next door neighbor that you are friends with. Usually, I can say that I liked one character the best. Not this time around with Hannah, Isaac, Jenny, and the rest of the characters where so interesting. I had a hard time putting this book down.
The way the story played out and the characters finally opening up to one another to bring healing and strength to stand up against all the things going on this family was beautifully written. I didn’t want this story to end. I wanted to see something more with Hannah and Isaac at the end of the story but, that is why it’s so realistic with all that happened to Hannah she wasn’t going to jump right into marriage. I hope to see more of them in another novel.
Now, the hard part of waiting for the next book in the series!
