The Promise of Palm Grove by Shelley Shepard Gray Book Tour, Review and Giveaway

The Promise of Palm Grove (Avon Inspire, January 2015)
Leona must decide: Does she follow the path set out before her? Or take a chance with only the promise of what could be to guide her?
A young Amish woman finds herself torn between the man she’s pledged to wed and the man her heart desires in this heartwarming story of chance, duty, and choice in the face of love—the first volume in the beloved New York Times bestselling author’s new Amish Brides of Pinecraft series.
Amish bride-to-be Leona is thrilled to be in Florida, on a mini-vacation in the pretty town of Pinecraft. Her girlfriends think she’s happy because she’s away from the stress of wedding planning. They have no idea that Leona’s real joy is in being away from her fiancé.
Edmund is a good man, and will make a decent husband . . . just not for Leona. The more time she spends with him and his overbearing ways, the less she wants to be his wife. Her cousins are sure Edmund is the right man for her-and their certainty makes Leona begin to doubt herself. But when a chance encounter with a wayward cat brings her face-to-face with a handsome, fun-loving Amish man named Zachary Kauffman, Leona’s faced with two vastly different futures.

  My review;

Author Shelley Shepard Gray has started a new series called, "Amish Brides of Pinecraft", and I have just finished reading Book One. "The Promise of Palm Grove", is a very enjoyable story. Leona who is on the verge of getting married is very happy that she is able to vacation before she settles down. Everyone thinks that Edmund is the right one for her, but she is not convinced. While she is on vacation she meets someone else. Now, Leona has to make a choice that will affect the rest of her life, as well as others. Will she trust herself enough? Whom will she pick, and who will let her be the person she wants to be? I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity Group and all opinions are my own.
