Ties That Bind Buddy Read

[Barbara]

There's a group that plan on reading Ties that Bind by Cindy Woodsmall from December 27-January 27. Why not join them?

Ariana’s comfortable Old Order Amish world is about to unravel. Will holding tightly to the cords of family keep them together—or simply tear them apart?

Twenty-year-old Ariana Brenneman loves her family and the Old Ways. She has two aspirations: open a café in historic Summer Grove to help support her family’s ever-expanding brood and to keep any other Amish from being lured into the Englisch life by Quill Schlabach.

Five years ago Quill, along with her dear friend Frieda, ran off together, and Ariana still carries the wounds of that betrayal. When she unexpectedly encounters him, she soon realizes he has plans to help someone else she loves leave the Amish.
*
Despite how things look, Quill’s goal has always been to protect Ariana from anything that may hurt her, including the reasons he left. After returning to Summer Grove on another matter, he unearths secrets about Ariana and her family that she is unaware of. His love and loyalty to her beckons him to try to win her trust and help her find a way to buy the café—because when she learns the truth that connects her and a stranger named Skylar Nash, Quill knows it may upend her life forever.

Ties That Bind is the first novel in the Amish of Summer Grove series.

I liked this book so much; it's a favorite read for 2017. the library has the second book 'frayed at the edges' and 'Gathering the Threads' is slated for release in August of 2017. I hope that is the ending series because I can't wait that long to finish a series.

[Diamond]

Yes, I agree it was a great book! I'm going to the library today to pick up Fraying at the Edges.

[Carolyn]

Does anyone know if there were discussion questions for this book?

@Carolyn: I will double check regarding the discussion questions at the end of the book.
