Young Amish couples tend to a community garden and harvest
friendships and love along the way in this new story collection by
bestselling author Amy Clipston. Spring Is in the Air: As the young
people of Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania, plant a garden in memory of
their friend, Katie Ann begins to worry that her older brother,
Ephraim, is dating her best friend. What if she somehow loses them
both? But Christian, a new boy in the community, also works in the
garden-and falling for him may be exactly the distraction, and
lesson, that Katie Ann needs. Home by Summer: Clara Hertzler is
surprised when Jerry Petersheim, her old friend, comes to the
garden to drop off his younger sister-especially because Jerry has
been gone for years, and now seems to be living as an Englisher. As
the friends get to know each other again, Clara pushes Jerry to
examine why he abandoned his Amish beliefs. Will Clara help Jerry
renew his faith in God, and will they find love beneath the summer
sun? The Fruits of Fall: Tena Speicher has come to live in
Bird-in-Hand after her fiance left her for an English woman. When a
stranger comes to the fruit stand one day and asks for food, Tena
is not sure how to respond-but Wayne intervenes and offers to let
him stay in the barn. Afraid to trust Englishers, Tena must learn,
with Wayne's help, that everyone is a child of God and deserving of
kindness. Winter Blessings: Ephraim and Mandy have dated for some
time and now have plans to marry. But after a series of unexpected
events and misunderstandings, they wonder if they should go their
separate ways. What will happen when their friends at the Amish
garden conspire to bring them back together? Each story in this
sweet, contemporary collection can be read as a standalone, but the
stories are best enjoyed together. Book length: approximately
95,000 words. Also includes a reading group guide and an Amish
glossary. "One story slides into the next, woven together
effortlessly with the author's knowledge of the Amish life. Once
started, you can't put this book down." -Suzanne Woods Fisher,
bestselling author of The Devoted
