BJ Hoff will delight her many faithful readers with her compelling new series, The Riverhaven Years, featuring the elements readers have come to expect: a heartwarming story about the faith journeys of people we come to know and love.
In the first book, Rachel’s Secret, Jeremiah Gant, a wounded Irish American riverboat captain, brings chaos and conflict to the Amish community of Riverhaven—especially for a young widow, Rachel Brenneman. The unwelcome “outsider” needs a safe place to recuperate before continuing his secret role as an Underground Railroad conductor.
Neither Jeremiah nor Rachel is prepared for the forbidden love that threatens to endanger a man’s mission, a woman’s heart—and a way of life for an entire community.

Great book,couldn't put it down. I never read anything by B.J. Hoff before but can't wait to read more of her work. I have also read her second book "Where Love Abides" and am waiting to read more in the Riverhaven series.

I undoubtedly read the #2 book in the Riverhaven series not knowing that there was a first book until later. I just completed the second book, "Where Love Abides", and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoy reading about the life of the "Plain People" as I do. B.J. Hoff makes her readers feel right at home. And I do mean "Right at Home." I'm looking forward to reading more from the Riverhaven Years.
