“When Grace Sings” by Kim Vogel Sawyer

When Grace Sings: A Novel (The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy) by Kim Vogel Sawyer

“When Grace Sings” is a great book! To be honest, sometimes I find Amish Christian books to be a little boring, but this one kept my interest the entire time! I liked that each chapter was written in one of the main characters point of view. It made the characters story and emotions more real to me and easy to follow.

This book is part of The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy. I haven’t read book 1, and I think the characters and relationships would have meant more to me if I had read it before reading this one. But I was still able to follow the story line with just reading it as a stand alone book.

Nothing was “resolved” in this story, so it definitely left everything open to continue in book 3. I will definitely have to look for it when it gets published.

Great story lines, characters, and belief in God. I really enjoyed this book and would recommend.

I was given a complimentary copy of this book from LitFuse Publicity in exchange for an honest review on my blog and social media-all opinions are my own.

About the book:
When trouble roars into quiet Arborville, Alexa and Anna-Grace find themselves the target for discord and exposed secrets. Can they continue to seek the God of all grace amidst the fog of confusion?

Alexa Zimmerman wonders if the Old Order Mennonite community in Arborville, Kansas will ever fully accept her. Her family roots here aren’t what anyone thought when she first arrived, but she is hopeful that her culinary and hospitality skills will win the skeptics over. The bed-and-breakfast she’s operating needs to succeed so Alexa agrees to allow Briley Forrester, the hotshot reporter from Chicago, to stay as a long-term boarder not knowing his real motives for being amongst the Plain folk.

But when Alexa agrees to host her cousin Anna-Grace Braun, the presence of extended family brings out Alexa’s insecurities and sets Briley on the trail to uncovering a web of hidden truths.

Plans for a secure future and the sweetness of young romance hang in the balance when Alexa and Anna-Grace have to face that their secrets are interconnected, binding the two in ways they could not have imagined. They must trust in a loving, heavenly Father and His plan for their futures.
