B is for Bonnet is part of Shelley Shepard Gray's new series, Amish ABCs, and readers who enjoy heartwarming Amish stories will not want to miss it. The series follows four siblings whose grandparents are Amish, and they are beginning to explore returning to their roots. This story focuses on Jonny, who lives with his grandparents and works at a bicycle shop. As he begins to build a relationship with a young Amish woman, his somewhat estranged father enters the picture. As the relationships develop, readers see the importance of forgiveness, faith, and family. Gray does a great job with the emotions and reactions of her characters as they explore new beginnings in their lives. I was given a complimentary advanced copy of the book through Net Galley and was not required to write a positive review. The opinions are my own. If you enjoy Amish Romance, get your copy when it releases on January 21, 2025.

This is the second book in the series by Shelley Shepard Gray. These books are really good. This series centers around 4 siblings that were raised English by their parents. Their dad was raised Amish and left the church to marry their mom. All 4 siblings are now grown and contemplating converting to the Amish faith. They spent many summers with their Amish grandparents. Their Amish grandparents want them each to live with them for a year (2 at a time) living as Amish and learning their ways before they make their decision. This book centers around the youngest sibling, Jonny. He is living with his grandparents and learning the Amish ways while working in a bicycle shop. He falls in love with Treva who runs a coffee shop on her parents farm in a converted barn. As time goes on, his dad wants to become closer to Jonny and his siblings. He spent most of their childhood working and not being there for them or to help their mom. They eventually divorced which was hard on the children. This book is about love, forgiveness, family and second chances. I received a complimentary copy of this book but was not required to leave a review. #netgalley #kensington #bisforbonnet

The second in the Amish ABC’s series highlights the youngest sibling Jonny living in his Amish grandparent’s house while making his decision to join the Amish faith or not. When his ‘English’ father shows up things are tense for all. Treva, has been hurt badly by her previous beau and is not looking for another one but finds herself thinking about Jonny y’all the time. Sweet story about family relationships but predictable.

Love the cover and love this author. I didn’t have to read what it was about because all her books are great. Great stand one book.

This short, inspirational Amish romance novel is a continuation of a series about 4 non-Amish siblings who move to an Amish community to be close to their Amish grandparents. I always enjoy reading about a sweet romance and the Amish lifestyle. Overall this is a cozy, enjoyable read.

Releases Jan. 21st. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I love the Schrock family, and loved being back with them and their desire to become Amish, following back to their ancestors.
This is Jonny's story and he is now back staying with his grandparents, his sister is now Amish, and we are updated on her life.
Now this is the second book in this series, and can be read alone, but you will miss some background.
Will Jonny take the final steps? Will his new romance with Treva Kramer continue, or will her old boyfriend win her back.
Answers come, along with updates on his siblings, and we are there for the delightful journey, along with a peek of whats coming!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.

I can not even imagine how difficult it would be to become Amish. All that you know- gone. The things you take advantage of- gone.
But there is so much more to gain. Jonny had much to learn. Treva had much to give.

This is the second book in this series by Shelley Shepard Gray. I read the first- A is for Amish. I have enjoyed both books. And I do look forward to the next.

Heartfelt

Jonny Schrock has just received some surprising news about his health that has him making some important and life-changing decisions. He is also faced with decisions regarding some of his family relationships. Then, when Treva Kramer becomes an unexpected but welcome inclusion in his life, Jonny's decisions have an even greater impact on him. As the relationship between him and Treva grows, a surprising situation for Treva arises. It has her making some important decisions of her own that will also affect her and Jonny. Along the way, more surprises show up that put some bumps in their growing relationship. But seeing it all play out is a sheer joy to watch.

Jonny and Treva's story is so heartfelt. Its themes of forgiveness, love, faith, family, and second chances flow through this story in a lovely and exceptional way that deeply touched my heart. It is a wonderful story of love that I highly recommend.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an advanced copy of this book. All comments and opinions are voluntary and completely my own.

B is For Bonnet is the second book in Shelley Shepard Grey’s series Amish ABCs. I would recommend that you read A is for Amish first because it gives you the foundation for the Schrock children who were raised English but their Dad married and became English.
This second book is about the youngest son Jonny Schrock, who has a health scare sans decided it was time to take his turn at his Amish grandparent’s house to live and decide if he wants to become Amish. He meets Treva Kramer who owns a coffee shop. I am loving this series! As always, Mrs Grey weaves into her stories.. Love, Faith, Forgiveness, Hope and Family!
Thank you Shelley Shepard Grey, NetGalley and Kensington Publishing for this ARC book. This is my honest opinion. This is a must read!

I would recommend this book.
Thank you, Netgalley and Kensington Publisher for the opportunity to read this ARC e-book and give my honest review.

This is the second book in the author's latest series. While it could be read as a standalone novel, the reader might appreciate things more if they read the books in order. This book focuses on Jonny, the youngest sibling. Relatable themes (such as guilt and forgiveness) will likely resonate with readers. As is expected with this author, characters come alive, and the reader is made to feel a part of the community.

I loved this book. Jonny and Treva were such relatable characters. Their love developed nicely and was sweet, both bringing out the good in each other. I also really enjoyed the added time spent with Matt, the father of the 4 Shrock kids. I look forward to reading Beth's story.

This is book two in the Amish ABC Series. The series is about four siblings that want a change in their lives, so they have decided each one will live with their Amish grandparents to see if it's the change they want. This story is about Jonny , he got a health scare from his doctor and decided he would go to his grandparents. Moving in with his grandparents different things happen and he learns faith in God and forgiveness and how to open his heart to love. I really enjoyed this book. Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book and I wasn't required to leave a review. #Netgalley #Shelley Shepard Gray #AmishABCSeries #Bisforbonnet #KENSINGTONBOOKS

I loved everything about this delightful book from the colorful cover to the characters, the story and the books ending. I thought that the book had a smooth flow and was an easy read. This second book in the series focused on Jonny Schrock and Cafe owner Treva Kramer. Characters from book one are carried over to this book and the story continues from where it stopped in book one. The theme of the story is not to let the past keep you from being all you can be in the present. Readers get to meet the parents of the Schrock siblings. Matt Schrock, their father plays a strong presence in this book. Their mother makes a brief appearance close to the end of the book. A few new characters are introduced and add to the story. This was an entertaining and inspirational story. I enjoyed reading B is for Bonnet.
As the story begins Jonny Schrock learns he has health issues and he will have to make some lifestyle changes. He reaches out to his father for help and advice. He starts his year of living with his Amish Grandparents and living the Amish plain life. He settles into a job and becomes smitten with a beautiful Amish Cafe owner. It isn’t just her lattes that keeps Jonny coming back to the Trailside Cafe. Will Jonny decide that the plain life of his Grandparents is what he wants for his future or will he go back to college when his year is up?
I highly recommend this book to readers of Amish Fiction and Romance, Christian Fiction and to those who have read book one in the ABCs series. I feel it is best to read A is for Amish before reading this book. B is for Bonnet is scheduled for release on 1/21/25.
I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions expressed here in this review are entirely my own
