Kim Vogel Sawyer is the author of twelve novels, including several bestsellers. In her spare time, she enjoys drama, quilting, and calligraphy. She and her husband, Don, reside in central Kansas and have three daughters and six grandchildren.

With their eldest son nearly to the age when he will be drafted into military service, Reinhardt and Lillian Vogt decide to immigrate to America, the land of liberty, with their three sons and Reinhardt's adopted brother, Eli. But when tragedy strikes during the voyage, Lillian and Eli are forced into an agreement neither desires. Determined to fulfill his obligation to Reinhardt, Eli plans to see Lillian and her sons safely settled on their Kansas homestead--and he's equally determined that the boys will be reared in the Mennonie faith. What he doesn't expect is his growing affection for Lillian--and the deep desire to be part of a family.

The Good Book Stall

I didn’t feel too great and needed a good story to take my mind off how I felt. Fields of Grace fulfilled this brief perfectly. A love story with historical interest: Kim Vogel Sawyer says in her introduction that it reflects her own Mennonite family’s coming to America. The Mennonites were forced out of Germany due to persecution. Catherine the Great of Russia promised them safety and protection but a regime change forced many of them to leave for America where at last they found permanent freedom to live and worship as they wished.  
This is the story of one of these families as they travel to America and settle in Kansas. There is bereavement along the way, love and misunderstandings, hard living and strenuous work, and a happy ending. Just what I needed.
