About the Book Home from the Storm

Title: Home from the Storm
Series: Johns Mill Amish Romance #4
Author: Laurel Blount
Publisher: Berkley
Release Date: December 26, 2023
Genre: Inspirational Romance Amish

In this stirring Amish romance about love and second chances, a shunned man returns to protect the wife he left behind—and falls in love with the family he never knew he had.

After a senseless loss, hotheaded Caleb Hochstedler left his Amish faith and his young wife to seek justice. Two years later, he tracks his parents’ killer back home to Johns Mill, where he’s astonished to learn he’s the father of twins. Now he’s determined to protect his children and the woman he still loves—if she’ll let him.

Her new husband’s abandonment broke Rhoda Lambright’s heart and proved her father, the bishop, right. Such a stubborn man could never be happy among the peaceful Amish. When Caleb unexpectedly returns, Rhoda is caught between her rock of a husband and a very hard place.

Her church forbids divorce and requires forgiveness, so Rhoda lets Caleb back into their home. But can she ever let him back into her heart?

One thing’s for certain sure.

This second chance will take all the faith they can find.

My Thoughts on Home from the Storm

This is book four in a series.  You’re definitely going to want to read this series in order and not just start with this book.  While you could read it and it would still be enjoyable, you would be missing out on a lot of backstory. 

This is a wonderful story of love, plus second chances.  And add in some suspense and good old-fashioned conflict.  It’s truly a great book to read.  It read quickly.  I fell in love with the characters.  Of course, I felt for Rhoda.  With her husband leaving the Amish to chase down a killer and all, but he comes back in this novel.  And she has twins, twins that her husband Caleb never even knew about.  Now that he’s tracked the killer back to their town and it seems the killer might be focused on Rhoda he is determined to stick around. 

Add in her father who never approved of Caleb and lots of other wonderful secondary characters and you’ve got an amazing read!  

I’ve loved the whole series but this might be my favorite book of them all!  And it’s a wonderful conclusion.  Grab the series today!
