Written in Love: Review by Susan Scott Ferrell

Written in Love – Please Forward!

Written in LoveAhh….It’s so lovely to get a new book written by Kathleen Fuller. It’s like a breath of fresh air! And so that is how I felt upon holding Fuller’s latest release, Written in Love, first in her Amish Letters series. Readers are in for a treat!

Written in Love tells the story of Jalon Chupp and Phoebe Bontrager. The two become pen pals due to a fluke. Each soon realizes that they need these letters – this life-line – in their lives. Yet both of them have secrets – secrets they are haunted by, secrets they fear to trust anyone with. When Jalon makes a surprise visit and shows up unannounced at Phoebe’s aunt’s door, their worlds collide. Will they be able to weather what heads their way next?

I was given Written in Love in exchange for my honest review. I thought it was fantastic. I loved the feeling that I was peeking in as notes were passed between friends! The storylines were gripping and compelling. I do wish the ending had flowed a bit better – either shorten it, or lengthen the novel as a whole – but overall I was mesmerized by Jalon, Phoebe, their friends, and family. Way to go, Kathleen Fuller!


Susan Ferrell and her husband make their home in the Atlanta Metro area. Although Susan struggles with chronic migraine headaches, she stays very busy as a stay-at-home mom to one very precocious little girl. While catching her breath, she feeds her Amishaholic tendencies by reading vast amounts of Amish literature!
