Baby Mama

Forgiven by: Shelley Shepard Gray


There is a crazy barn fire that happens at Jonathan's farm. No one know how it started or who started it. The fire Marshall believe that it started from a cigarette.
Winnie is badly burned when she goes out to see the fire. She has to go to the hospital. While she is there Samuel, a man who used to be in the Amish community, but left it to go to university, comes and spends time with Winnie. Winnie is in her late 20s and really wants to fall in love and get married and start her family. Anna finally gets married.
Jonathan is determined to figure out who was smoking in his barn. When the boy who did it steps up and finally admits it Jonathan learns to forgive him and it touches the boy.
Winnie and Samuel start to hit it off in the hospital. But when Winnie goes back to the Amish Community she soon realizes that it will never work out. When she can't get Samuel out of her head she has decided that she will leave to marry Samuel. But Samuel has decided to leave the world and join the Amish church. Winnie and Samuel plan to get married.
I enjoyed this series quiet a bit. Having a Mennonite background, I have always had an interest in Amish literature and country. This is a good insight into the Amish community and what they are about and a little bit about their views.  

The Deep End of the Ocean by: Jacquelyn Mitchard


Beth is a mother of 3 children. Life is fairly good. When Beth goes to her high school reunion she takes her three kids, Vincent-7, Ben-3, and Kerry-baby. As Beth is checking in Ben is kidnapped. She turned her back for a second and her son is missing. 4 hours pass and no Ben. 4 days pass and no Ben.  4 months pass and no Ben. 4 years pass and no Ben. It seems that Ben will never be found again. The book takes you through Beth and Vincent's most inner feelings and what they have to go through to come to terms with Ben being gone. Then 9 years later Ben reappears. He has no idea he was kidnapped. And the whole family is reunited. But they aren't really a family.
This book is defiantly going to find a place on my book shelf some time soon. It is a must read and a must own. The movie was also pretty good. Though I watched it before I read the book so I can't remember how accurate it is.
