Upon a Spring Breeze by Kelly Irvin

This is the first book of Kelly Irvin's that I've read. It was delightful! In the first few pages I was drawn into the characters and instantly connected with them. Bess tragically loses her husband in an accident and is expecting a baby. Bess has her baby shortly after the death of her husband and she is suffering the blues that many mothers have after the birth of a baby. I've read many Amish fiction books but this is the first one that I've read that covers Post Par-tum Depression and Alzheimer's. I found myself happy, scared, and sad with the characters when they were in certain situations. Aidan is Bess's friend and also her late husband's best friend, but most importantly Bess's love interest. I felt like Bess and Aidan's love story wasn't very well fleshed out. They had some conflict because Aidan felt guilty for her husband's death but there really wasn't much of them falling in love. I'm one that likes a good love story and usually I cry when the characters are first professing their love to one another which didn't happen to me in this story. Overall good book and I would recommend to anyone who is looking for good, clean, Christian fiction.
