About this ebook series

Life gets a lot harder for Amish midwife Kristi Lapp when a buggy wreck lands her in the hospital and leaves her with a pronounced limp. Among her biggest concerns is the well-being of her dog, Chinook, as she is no longer able to keep up with the high-energy Siberian husky. Adding insult to injury, Kristi fears she’ll never marry for love, for what man would willingly wed a woman who needs help with even the most basic of household tasks?
Shane Zimmerman moved to Seymour for a fresh start. The veterinarian is still reeling from the loss of his wife and his unborn child. The coroner deemed aneurysm as the cause of death, but Shane still blames the Amish midwife—specifically, the herbal remedies she prescribed.
Shane meets Kristi when he discovers her wrecked buggy and takes her to the hospital. Soon, what started as common courtesy turns into a strong mutual attraction. Yet the obstacles that bar a relationship between them are many. Will they find a way to stay together? Or will their differences prove too divisive to resolve?

Janna Kauffman enjoys working as a personal shopper for the homebound in her Amish community. But when her wayward niece comes to live with her family, Janna finds herself spending less time shopping and more time explaining Meghan’s erratic behavior to the local authorities. Her dealings with the law aren’t entirely bad, though, as they bring her back into contact with a childhood crush.Police officer Troy Troyer shed his given name when he left the Amish eight years ago in an effort to escape his demons. He has no intentions of going back, either—not even for Janna Kauffman, the girl he’s admired as long as he can remember. He can’t believe his luck when she still welcomes a relationship with him, and he does his best to straddle both worlds, even as he questions the point in pursuing a love that cannot last.
Caught up in the exhilaration of their youthful dreams coming true, the couple makes a brash decision that jeopardizes the reputations of Janna and her father, the local bishop, and also threatens to destroy the fragile stability being built into Meghan’s life. It will require the power of forgiveness to mend broken bonds and pave a path for future bliss.

Desperate for a Ticket Out

Bethany Weiss is ready to leave town. Tongues haven't stopped clacking in Jamesport, MO, since her daed, the bishop, was admitted to a mental hospital after hurting their small Amish community. But her sharpest wounds Bethany hides from prying eyes, quietly biding her time until she can take a chance at a new life—away from Jamesport and away from God.

Searching for a Home

Silas Beiler was kicked out of his own family's home. Dogged by a rough childhood and a family who blames him for each new disaster, he begins hitchhiking across the country, sleeping in barns where he can, working for food when possible—headed for Pennsylvania, in the hope of some stability.

A Memory of Lemonade

When Bethany spies a man asleep in the hayloft, she first fears the return of an unwelcome suitor. But when it is Silas who turns and speaks, the memories flood back: a happy summer six years ago full of lemonade, long walks, and budding courtship. Now, however, those months of bliss seem naïve and idyllic. Will their old love overcome new pain? Or will hurt and rejection continue to haunt their path?

Mercy Lapp is ready for a fresh start. Having lost her fiancé in a fishing accident during his rumschpringe, she escapes the painful memories by moving from her community in Shipshewana, Indiana, to Seymour, Missouri, where she takes a job as a mother’s helper. She isn’t exactly shy, but she’s hesitant to get involved with the youth in the community because she isn’t going to stay. She especially doesn’t want a new romance.
Abner Hilty is excited to see his twin brother, Abram, for the first time in years. The two fled their hometown of Shipshewana when their witness of a murder put their lives in danger, Abner heading to Montana to work on a ranch and hunt big game, Abram meeting a girl in Missouri, marrying, and settling down there. Abner decides to spend the holidays with them in Seymour, but he has every intention of returning to Montana, maybe even for good.
At a chance encounter, Abner is immediately drawn to Mercy, and even more so when he realizes that they’ve met before, back in Shipshewana. Initially alarmed, Mercy soon warms to his attentions. She also branches out and begins attending youth functions, forming new friendships that are solidified during a rare snowstorm. Just when Mercy and Abner are beginning to think about a long-term relationship, Mercy gets a phone call that changes everything. The information would have been welcome months ago, but now that she knows Abner, she’s torn, and she will have to do some serious soul-searching to decide how to act on it.
