My Celebrate Lit Blog Tour winner is Marisela Zuniga from Texas. She won a $25 gift card to Amazon and my three books, AMISH BABY SNATCHED, A PLAIN WIDOW, and PRISCILLA'S ESCAPE. I appreciate all the bloggers and reviewers. It was a great tour. Thanks to everyone who took time to comment on the blog stops. I enjoyed your comments!
I'm sharing two of the recent reviews from these bloggers!
5 stars A lovely read!
By Manda Jane
This book is an interest glimpse into life in an Amish family. Diane does a wonderful job of explaining some of their beliefs and weaving it into this wonderful story of secrets, growing pains, suspense, and faith. I enjoyed getting to know Priscilla and her family as they work through their differences. I like how this book explored her having a God given talent to paint and how that would fit into her choice to either stay in the Amish community or leave.
This book is part of a series, but works just fine as a stand alone title too.

5 stars A book about spreading wings and finding your own path
By PATTI PIERCE
Our family lived for four years in a community that included many Amish families. We began buying our produce from several Amish markets, one thing that always stood out to me was the respect the children had for their parents. So when Priscilla King goes against her parents’ wishes to take a job in Florida, I was surprised. While the concept of the running around time or rumspringa is familiar to me, the idea of an Amish young man or woman going against their parents’ wishes is unusual. However, I understand Priscilla’s reasons for doing so.
Amos King, Priscilla’s father, is the Bishop and has a secret. I love how his wife gently tries to get him to share the secret with his family. For me, this book is as much about the extended family as it is about Priscilla, Mitch, and Stephen.
This is the third book in The Bishop’s Daughters series and even though I have not read the first two books, I feel like this book is able to stand alone. So I recommend you check out this book for yourself.
