The Fields Between Us
She blames him for her father’s betrayal. He only ever meant to help. In Faith’s Creek, the lines between love and resentment can blur like footprints in a field after rain…
Lydia Brandt has no patience for soft-spoken boys, or the man who bought her father’s land when times turned hard. Aaron King may be steady, kind, and well-respected in the community, but to Lydia, he’s the reason her family lost everything. And she has no intention of forgiving him.
But Ruth Esch, the village’s most determined grandmother and unofficial matchmaker, has other ideas. When a twisted ankle, a thunderstorm, and a string of “accidental” errands force Lydia and Aaron into close quarters, old grievances begin to unravel… and something tender starts to bloom.
As family secrets surface and wounds from the past begin to heal, Lydia must decide whether holding on to anger is worth losing the one man who sees her clearly, and loves her anyway.
In a community bound by faith and kindness, sometimes the hardest fences to mend are the ones built around your own heart.

Heartwrenching
These characters really tugged at my heart. I was confused though by the appearance of characters from previous books in the series. Were there two different Hannah’s? The previous book was about Hannah and Rueben, but here, we kept running into Hannah and Gabriel. And where was Tabby and the other Gabriel’s niece that they adopted? Whenever they appeared, she was never mentioned. Aside from those issues, this was probably my favorite.

Great story, but many mistaIes
I really love all these stories. I have read the entire series, but in this story Gavriel kept switching wives. Hannah married Ruben in the last book, yet in this one Gabriel was with Hannah for part, then with Tabby. It switched a few different times. It got rather confusing. A great story, nonetheless.

Great Story
I enjoyed reading this book but the time it took for Lydia and Aaron to finally get together was way too long. It teased the reader. Just when you thought this was it. It wasn’t but I enjoyed it anyway.
