The Mercy

The Rose Trilogy, Book 3

By: Beverly Lewis

Narrated by: Christina Moore

Rose Kauffman pines for prodigal Nick Franco, the Bishop's foster son who left the Amish under a cloud of suspicion after his foster brother's death. His rebellion led to the "silencing" of their beloved Bishop. But is Nick really the rebel he appears to be? Rose's lingering feelings for her wayward friend refuse to fade, but she is frustrated that Nick won't return and make things right with the People. Nick avowed his love for Rose - but will he ever be willing to sacrifice modern life for her?

Meanwhile, Rose's older sister, Hen, is living in her parents' Dawdi Haus. Her estranged "English" husband, injured and helpless after a car accident, has reluctantly come to live with her and their young daughter during his recovery. Can their marriage recover, as well? Is there any possible middle ground between a woman reclaiming her old-fashioned Amish lifestyle and thoroughly modern man?

Breathtaking!!!!

One of my favorites so far!!!! This has so many small stories within and each is just as intriguing as the other!

Amish Christian lessons applied

Story was very relaxing to read for me. I had all three reactions to the story. A lot of rolling my eyes, agreeing and amen's!

The families dynamics

I enjoyed it all from the beginning to the end. I wish there was another follow up book.

I loved this trilogy and can't wait for the next one from Beverly Lewis. I have read most of her books and just love them. I can't put them down once I get started reading them. This is the first trilogy I listen to on audible and I enjoyed it very much.Christina was ok she could of been a little better at separating each person in the book. But over all she did an ok job...

Wish the series would continue. Sad it came to an end. 2nd and 3 books were the best.

Loved this!. Ties everything up in a bow from book 1 to this final book 3.
Wonderful story of longing for acceptance, but being shunned for a crime never committed.
