A Cousin's Prayer
Kumme to Amish country with Wanda Brunstetter’s A Cousin’s Prayer, where the simple life and faith in God lead to hope and healing.
A year after her boyfriend was killed in a van in which she was also a passenger, a traumatized Katie Miller returns to her Amish community in Indiana, struggling with depression and panic attacks. Will she ever find the courage—and the faith—to face her inner demons and find her way out of the valley of her depression?
Freeman Bontrager has been interested in Katie ever since they were in school together. Now that Katie is home, Freeman finds excuses to spend time at the Miller’s home, hoping to win her love. But how far should he go to gain her trust…and her heart? Can he bring Katie out of the shadows of fear and open her heart to love? Or should he turn to the alluring Eunice Byler?
When a mysterious package appears on Katie’s doorstep and brings her out of her despair, Freeman’s loyalty is tested. But at least there’s hope—until the “gift” must be returned to its rightful owners.
Will Freeman win Katie’s trust only to lose his standing in the eyes of her parents? And what will it take for Katie to overcome her fears at last and dare to love again?

This is the first book by Wanda Brunstetter that I have read, and I was very impressed with her insight on the Amish lifestyle, and her compassion for the people who have depression/panic attacks. I am looking forward to a new book by her.

Another wonderful Amish book! I could relate to Katie with struggling with depression and panic attacks. And like her had alot of fears about loving someone again. Her character was so vivid and made you really feel you were in the book living this story. You really become and think differently after reading a book like this. Looking forward to reading more from Wanda Brunstetter !

GREAT STORY

Another wonderful Amish story. Having suffered from depression myself I felt a kinship with Katie. As a Christian I know how hard it can be to accept this illness and not feel out of touch with reality. I am glad Wanda Brunstetter told it like it is. I love reading about the Amish life and how these amazing people exist in our world today and face so many similar problems. Thanks again for a great story! Can't wait for more.
