About the book:

A Dream of Miracles (Thomas Nelson, April 2016)

Amish widow Mattie vows never to love again . . . until a suspicious outsider with a shadowy past comes crashing into her fragile world.

Mattie Diener can barely keep it together. A young Amish widow and mother of two young children, she faces the lingering heartbreak of lost love, her son's mysterious illness, and a torrent of accusations that threaten to undo her.

Bo Lambright is a fast-rising social services investigator whose high-society mother won't rest until she finds his Mrs. Right. Despite Bo's worldly success, the raw ache of a shadowy past and a series of unsettling dreams have left him reeling.

When Mattie and Bo cross paths, all signs point to disaster. Yet as they face a crucible of trials and tragedies together, longings begin to stir that seem destined only to end in more heartbreak. Is a miracle possible---not only of healing but of forbidden love? What secrets lie in Bo's dreams? And will Mattie find the courage to face her uncertain future . . . or will she simply run away?

My Review:
Ruth Reid's latest Amish novel, "A Dream of Miracles," is her latest Amish Wonders novel and a great read.  This book addresses some of the issues that result from the differences in the Amish way of life and the English and yet also a story that addresses things that we all face, including insecurities, fear and love. 
Right away I was sucked into the story as it begins with Mattie dealing with her son's fever and rash, and a new doctor who she has not had treat her son before.  Bo has a trying job, but he has had lots of success, but that doesn't mean he's living a happy life.  I found myself completely drawn into this story and the characters' lives, as I work with as a social worker, and work closes with child protective services.  This is a trying, and painful job at times, but also is rewarding at times.  I feel like this made the book more personal to me as I could relate to the characters and the storyline.  This is a great read, and a nice mix of romance and drama.
