A Promise of Hope by Amy Clipston

Young widow Sarah Troyer awaits the arrival of her first babies, twins. Bereft after her husband, Peter, dies in a fire, she struggles each day wondering how she and the children will survive without their father and husband. Fortified by their faith, she is encouraged by her family and friends who encourage her daily. When Luke Troyer arrives in Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania, all are startled by the appearance of a relative, when Peter had told everyone he was an orphan with no brothers or sisters. Anger at Peter's deception, Sarah finds it difficult to forgive him and then Luke who tries to keep from hurting her feelings and finally her brother Timothy is the last straw. A good read with a happy ending. Sandy Penton.
