Product details
In this sequel to The Bargain, Betsie Troyer is back home in her Amish community where she knows she belongs, free from the confusing Englisher way of life. She and Charley Yoder have made promises to each other, and her life is back on track--until Gerald Sullivan shows up with his young daughter, asking for Betsie's help. He's on his way to find his estranged wife, and begs Betsie to take young Sheila in.
When she agrees, Betsie's carefully planned life is shaken up again. Sheila's newfound faith is troubling to Charley--and his attraction to another girl is beginning to be a problem. But how can Betsie confront him when she is still trying to confront her own feelings about Sheila's brother, Michael? Keeping the peace between the Amish man she's always loved, a twelve-year-old Englisher girl, and a draft-dodging hippie is more than she ever thought she'd have to deal with in her simple, orderly life. Still, Betsie is convinced she can keep things from falling apart completely.
Then during her best friend's wedding, tragedy strikes and her world is upended. She has to make a decision: does she love Charley or Michael . . . or is she craving a deeper love that only God can give?
The compelling second novel of the Plain City Peace series, The Bachelor deftly weaves together the strands of a solid, simpler time with the turmoil of an era of change, revealing the strengths of both in its powerful narrative.

Great Amish Cliff Hanger!!
*Book Description* Betsie Troyer knows life will be so much more simple again, now that she's back in her Amish home. Or so she thought before Sheila Sullivan reenters her life. Now with 2 men, one english and one amish, an English little girl to cheer up, and a nasty pony, Betsie finds herself more frazzled then ever. Trying to regain Charley Yoder's trust, however, is easier said then done. Especially when Michael insists on sending her letters...and she insists on responding to them. Now, as she eagerly awaits hearing from the Englischer, she begins to wonder if she's made the right decision... if she even wants Charley to trust her again. With all these feelings, will her life ever be back in order again? Charley Yoder can't believe Betsie would defy her promise just minutes after she made it. That's not the only thing making his blood boil though...Sheila Sullivan is an Englischer and therefore doesn't belong here. Why can't Betsie see that? Will she ever make up their mind so they can have a life together? And can he even live with someone who refuses to abide to his rules? *What I liked* Stephanie did a realy great job both with showing the Amish life and how they think towards the English. It really showed both sides well, and somehow had us rooting both men at the same time. She also had a sweet cover. *What I didn't like* The main thing I didn't like was the ending!! It was so rushed and cut off with her decision in the end, I'm pretty sure my mouth was gaping. Add in the fact that her third book doesn't come out until 2016 and you have a slightly disappointed, avid reader. Stephanie will make up for it though! *My Rating* *Why my rating is what it is* My rating is 3 1/2 stars (4 stars on store reviews) mainly because of the ending but also because it was a bit slower then I'd like it. However, it is a very good book all in all so get this book and the first book in the series! *I received this book from bookfun.org and Kregel publications in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts are my own and I was not compensated in any other way.
