Goodbye to Yesterday By Wanda Brunstetter


Join Meredith and Luke Stoltzfus, an Amish couple who are faced with the greatest challenge of their young lives. Financial struggles. Arguments. A confirmed pregnancy. A last-minute trip to South Bend, Indiana. A drug addict on the run. A deadly encounter at a Philadelphia bus station. Will their love and faith be enough to bring them back together again, against all odds? 
 
Book 1 of the 6-part serial novel--The Discovery-A Lancaster County Saga.
 
You must pick up your copy here


New York Times bestselling author, Wanda E. Brunstetter became fascinated with the Amish way of life when she first visited her husband's Mennonite relatives living in Pennsylvania. Wanda and her husband, Richard, live in Washington State but take every opportunity to visit Amish settlements throughout the States, where they have several Amish friends.

 Well this is something new a small 8 chapter book. Book one left me hanging begging for more.
Wanda is the first  New York Time Bestselling author to sell one full book in six small books. I hate that I have to wait a month to find out what is going to happen next.
I loved this story but it was a very fast read. I need more!
Wanda is one of the queens of Amish fiction and she knows how to write a terrific story.
5 stars times two.
I was given a copy of this book by the author.
I highly recommend this book, but I must warn you. you are left hanging.

  9. I'm not surprised at all that you gave Wanda Brunstetter 5 stars twice, Mary. She's a masterful Amish fiction author, and I've loved every book she's ever written. I am, however, disappointed to see that this is a series of short stories coming out in segments. I prefer to read a series back to back, and I will undoubtedly wait for all segments of this to be published before purchasing. Thanks for the great review~

    1. Nancee, you know a book has to be very very good to get 5 stars from me if it get 10 stars then everyone should be reading it! I am not sure I care about the book coming out in six small books like this. I want to read it all at one time! I don't care for cliffhangers from great authors!

    2. I preordered her books so that when I have received all of them I'll read them back to back. Thanks, Mary!!!
