Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Amish Trust and Betrayal
Rachel Stoltzfus · 2018
52/100
👎 Skip It
Katie's tangle of secrets and a stalker who won't let go gives this Christian Amish romance more tension than the usual sweet fare. It's a solid, faith-affirming series entry, but it's genre comfort reading rather than anything that's going to surprise you.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Includes a stalking storyline and interpersonal deception as central plot drivers; parents of younger teens may want to know that going in, though the genre stays clean of explicit content.. We still scored it 52; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
