About the book:
Julia Lapp has planned on marrying Paul Fisher since she was a girl. Now twenty-one, she looks forward to their wedding with giddy anticipation. When Paul tells her he wants to postpone the wedding–again–she knows who is to blame. Perpetual bachelor and spreader of cold feet, Roman Troyer, the Bee Man.
Roamin’ Roman travels through the Amish communities of Ohio and Pennsylvania with his hives full of bees, renting them out to farmers in need of pollinators. He relishes his nomadic life, which keeps him from thinking about all he has lost. He especially enjoys bringing his bees to Stoney Ridge each year. But with Julia on a mission to punish him for inspiring Paul’s cold feet, the Lapp farm is looking decidedly less pleasant.
Can Julia secure the future she’s always dreamed of? Or does God have something else in mind?
About Suzanne:
Her interest in the Amish began with her grandfather, W.D. Benedict, who was raised Plain. She has many, many Plain relatives living in Franklin County, Pennsylvania, and travels back to Pennsylvania, as well as to Ohio, a couple of times each year for research.
Suzanne has a great admiration for the Plain people and believes they provide wonderful examples to theworld. In both her fiction and non-fiction books, she has an underlying theme: You don’t have to “go Amish” to incorporate many of their principles–simplicity, living with less, appreciating nature, forgiving others more readily– into your life.
When Suzanne isn’t writing or bragging to her friends about her first new grandbaby (!), she is raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind. To Suzanne’s way of thinking, you just can’t take life too seriously when a puppy is tearing through your house with someone’s underwear in its mouth.

MY REVIEW:
I love to read books about the Amish lifestyle. The Keeper does not disappoint.
The Keeper is a story of taking care of family, lost love, and found love.
With the main story line of Julia and her wedding, there is a second story line of heart disease and heart transplant. A heart donor comes from a most unlikely, heart wrenching place. While the events leading up to the donor heart being available are heart wrenching, the family accepts the donor heart with peace. Knowing that the donation is surely what the donor wanted, the family accepts the donation with a peace about them.
If you also like reading books about the Amish lifestyle, you’ll love The Keeper.
Linda, Thank you for hosting The Keeper today. I will be looking forward to the comments at the Blog Party on the 17th!

Thank you so much for your review and for being part of this blog tour! I didn’t realize that the book also included a heart transplant on top of everything else it delivers. WOW! Just amazing how much emotion it must deliver!
I’m so excited to read it!
Hi Linda! Thanks for being a part of the blog tour for “The Keeper” and for bringing out some storylines that other reviewers didn’t mention. Nice work! Warmly, Suzanne
I thoroughly enjoyed this book too! It was really great!
