Dear Kate: Letters to Kate About Life, Love, and Finding Happily Ever After (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781664292567)

As a timid, shy girl living in an Amish community, Kate Troyer dreamed of one day marrying a knight in shining armor who would love every little thing about her, and that this love would glue the broken pieces of her heart together again. As it turns out, her dream did come true and their love did just that-but first, Kate would have to experience more turmoil than she ever imagined.

In a retelling of her courtship and marriage as a na?e eighteen-year-old girl, Kate shares insight into her personal journey as well as reflective letters to herself that reveal a poignant glimpse into the intense turmoil that surrounded the majority of her married life as she walked a fine line between trying to please God and her older husband, and finding her true self. As she reveals her many struggles, Kate also details the breakthroughs that enabled her to grow where she was planted, and eventually led her to the illuminating discovery that attaining a happy marriage is sometimes as simple as changing one's perspective.

Dear Kate is the inspirational true story of a woman's experiences as she matured from an innocent girl into a loyal wife who relied on her faith and belief in herself to build a strong and lasting marriage.
