Stolen  Bride: kidnapped Amish girl finds freedom and love in a new world
Begining with a lovely cover that sets the mood for the love of the land in addition to a sense of longing for what lies beyond that productive land,STOLEN BRIDEis a gentle read, the kind of book that soothes as it informs, ... as it weaves a well constructed story.......the dichotomy between a sequestered life versus the world at large outside the Amish community is comfortably drawn. So read the novel for the story as well as an education about a way of life that has it merits.  Grady Harp, October 11I was instantly drawn to a novel released in 2011 by Valentine Dmitriev,Stolen Bride: Kidnapped Amish Girl Finds Freedom, Love in New World.I really enjoyed reading this book .... And I enjoyedStolen Bridemuch more than I did the one Beverly Lewis novel I read. Now I am torn between whether to read another Lewis novel or another Dmitriev novel.By Emory Daniels--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
