Amish woman Rosanna Zook lost her self-confidence within the confines of a loveless and abusive marriage. In the years spent quietly dealing with her burdens and dutifully caring for others, she forgot her sense of self and ability to feel. But after her first husband's untimely death, she gets a second chance with Reuben Troyer, a godly man who welcomes Rosanna and her two children into his life.

Despite the love and respect she finds in her new marriage, Rosanna soon learns that juggling the demands of her family and church community is more than she can handle. When Rosanna becomes ill, she is forced to confront a hard truth: One empty cup cannot fill another. For a woman who has spent her life giving, will Rosanna finally be able to let go and receive?

This book was read well and was an easy listen but it was also boring as it stayed at the same pace the whole time.

Even paced, not excited or changes of pace

When I started listening, it really did not grab my interest. I walked everyday and listened, but toward the end I looked forward to it each day. i took a lesson from reading this book

Slow start, great ending

This was a very well written story with many actual factual locations. A pretty good description of Amish as well. The only drawback was the narrator using incorrect pronunciation of many place names.

A lesson in a story. Almost like a parable.

This was a very heartwarming book about Roseanne, an Amish woman who gave so much of herself and wanted nothing in return. She put all of her trust in God and strived towards being a dutiful wife and mother even with the mental abuse from her husband she still remained true to her vows. After a sudden and milk illness hit er unexpectedly, she had to learn how to say, "No," to the many demands that were pressed upon her from her community. But with the help of a wise woman, she learned how to stop doing so much for others while neglecting her own needs.

This was a terrific read with an adorable and likable character. I was in the story the entire time. I also took a liking to the variety of terms and traditions within the Amish community.

The audio version was clear and the emphasis on particular words, phrases, and scenes was right on point and placed me in the story from beginning to end. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to escape for a while from their stressful life and learn a bit about the Amish community in the process.

This story portrays very common scenarios and tells the truth about the guidance we're given in God's Word. The narrator is good; pleasant voice and does the characters well with appropriate emotion.

Finally some truth

This book had a fair story and plot. It was a quick and easy listen that didn't require much concentration to follow. I enjoyed it as a listen while driving and cleaning house. I would note that the plot line is rather thin throughout and sums up quite quickly. The character development is rather shallow and the handling of depression as a topic is thin and brief. However, for a free audio book, I can overlook these issues and say it is worth the listen if you need background audio while doing something else.

Good free book, easy listen

The story line is very predictable. Story is based on one character and her real weak mess. I am sure many women caved under dominant husbands. But the 22 chapters went on like a broken record.

Not much excitement
