During the most difficult season of her life, how could she know whether their meeting was a gift from God--or another temptation? Maisy never expected that a Plain girl like her could have her heart stolen by an Englisch boy. But when her rumspringa ends and Maisy realizes she's pregnant, the reality of their choices--and their differences--sets in. Maisy knows she will never leave her faith to marry her baby's father. But she also knows the road to acceptance as an unwed mother in an Amish community will be long and hard. To protect her family from the scandal, she goes to live with her cousin in Haven, Kansas, where she will have some solitude to figure out what kind of future she might have. In Haven Maisy begins to find her way--thanks in no small part to Joshua Lapp, a Plain man who's made it clear he isn't bothered by her situation or ashamed to be seen with her, despite the bishop's warnings. But Joshua has struggled with his faith ever since the death of his twin brother, leaving Maisy to wonder: How can two people who are so lost ever help each other discover Gott's plans for their future?

Every Good Gift by Kelly Irvin is the third novel in the Amish Blessings series. It can be read as a standalone for those new to the series. I was eager to read this story (I moved it ahead of other books on my TBR list). I like Kelly Irvinââ?¬â?¢s writing style. It is friendly and engaging. I was easily drawn into the story. Maisy Glick is on her rumspringa and has an English boyfriend. When Maisy discovers she is pregnant, she makes a decision. Maisy does not want her family to be embarrassed by her actions. She departs for Haven, Kansas to stay with her cousin. Joshua Lapp is at the bus station sending his family off on their trip. He sees an exhausted Maisy and offers her transportation to her cousinââ?¬â?¢s farm. Joshua is not a baptized member of the church despite being in his early twenties. Joshua misses his twin brother who died when they were twelve. He is angry at God and does not understand how God can allow a child to die. Joshua befriends Maisy despite warnings from the bishop. Maisy has some tough decisions to make. What does God have in store for these two lost souls? Every Good Gift is a touching story. I thought the characters were realistic and relatable. The author did a wonderful job of describing the emotions the characters were feeling. Maisy and Joshua learn some valuable life lessons. Maisy needs to find a way to forgive herself so she can move forward while Joshua needs to let go of his grief and anger towards God. I like that we are reminded that ââ?¬Å"Every one of us has sinned and fallen short of the glory of Gott.ââ?¬Â? We only have to seek forgiveness and He will give it. I was sorry when Every Good Gift came to an end. I enjoyed getting to know the characters and going on their journey with them. I like that we get to catch up with the characters from Loveââ?¬â?¢s Dwelling and The Warmth of Sunshine. Every Good Gift is a story about love, compassion, faith, family, forgiveness, and hope.
