"Kentucky Brothers Trilogy" by Wanda E. Brunstetter

Product Details

I just finished a 3-in-1 collection titled “Kentucky Brothers Trilogy” by Wanda E. Brunstetter. This is the complete series of three Amish brothers who want a fresh start in life.

“The Journey” features Titus Fisher who thought he would marry the girl he had been in love with for several years; however, on her 18th birthday she advises him that she is not going to join the church but is going to go to California with her girlfriend and does not plan to return to Lancaster County, PA. Titus moves to Christian County Kentucky to find a new life and uses his working skills to support himself.  This new life puts him in a position where he now much choose between two women.

“The Healing” features Titus Fisher’s brother Samuel who just lost his wife; Titus convinces him to come to Kentucky with his four small children to overcome his grieving.  He hires a sitter for his children, but she wants to be more than the children’s sitter.

“The Struggle” features Titus’s and Samuel’s brother Timothy who wants to move his wife away from the influence of her mother, so moves her to Kentucky to the same Amish community.  A tragic accident tears them further apart and his wife returns to Pennsylvania; in time she realizes she is pregnant but does not tell any of Timothy’s family.   Will God repair things with them?

All through the series of stories are other non-Amish couples who meet for the first time, including one pair who accidentally meet after over twenty years of separation.

The author became interested in the Amish way of life when she first visited her husband’s Mennonite relatives living in Pennsylvania.

This was an easy read and the characters are each dynamic in their own right. There was also information I found interesting about the beliefs and traditions of the Amish that I did not previously realize. This is excellent Christian Reading.
