In the first novel set in the Amish community of Pleasant Valley, a
teacher must rely on her faith to guide her heart through
challenging times. All of Pleasant Valley seems to think the
newcomer from Lancaster County is the perfect match for
schoolteacher Leah Beiler. After all, so few new families come to
their secluded Amish community, and even fewer unmarried men.
Daniel Glick is a widower with three young children to look
after-clearly he's in need of a wife. But Daniel's past haunts him
at every turn. Though he cannot miss the beauty in Leah's bright
eyes and patient ways, he also sees a reminder of the pain he came
so far to escape. Leah, too, has a burden on her heart. Years ago
she was engaged to Johnny Kile, and was heartbroken when he decided
to leave the Amish community. Since then she has immersed herself
in her love of the children she teaches, forgetting any hopes of
having her own family. When Johnny returns, seeking reconciliation,
Leah must decide between two pathways, either of which will change
her life forever...

In the third Pleasant Valley novel, the Amish community welcomes
back one of their daughters, but she hasn't returned alone... After
spending three years in the English world, Anna Beiler has come
back to Pleasant Valley with a baby girl, which will surely cause a
stir since Anna is unmarried. She is also hiding secrets: the baby
is not hers by birth, nor does she intend to stay. Rather, she
desperately needs sanctuary from the child's violent father... It
surprises Anna how quickly her Amish habits return to her, and how
satisfying it feels to reconnect with her friends and family. Even
Anna's childhood friend Samuel, whose slow, thoughtful manner used
to frustrate her, becomes a fond and reassuring companion. But Anna
hasn't fully faced the consequences of her irresponsible youth, and
now, her mere presence may endanger the family she holds dear. If
she wants to stay, she must seek forgiveness from the community
whose blessing she took for granted, and experience the true change
of heart required to make a new beginning.

Three Amish sisters, separated when very young, know nothing about
one another--until a long-held secret is revealed.
With no memory of her birth parents, or the tragic accident that
took their lives, Lydia Beachy has always been grateful for the
aunt and uncle who took her in and raised her as their own. Now a
married woman with two sons, Lydia finds her life turned upside
down when she discovers that she has two younger sisters: Susanna,
who was adopted by an Amish family in another community, and Chloe,
who was raised by their grandmother among the Englisch.
Angry and confused, Lydia first seeks out Susanna but stops short
of telling her the truth. To track down Chloe, she enlists the help
of a neighbor who has spent some years in the Englisch world.
Meanwhile, Lydia's husband, Adam, is keeping a secret of his own.
Lydia yearns to be united with the sisters she has never known, but
will revealing herself to them tear their lives apart...or enrich
them beyond all imagining?

In this compelling novel in the Pleasant Valley series, a woman
opens a quilt shop that brings the Amish and the Englisch
together-and brings her unexpected challenges... Hoping for a
distraction after a thwarted romance, new arrival Katie Miller sets
up shop on Pleasant Valley's Main Street. It's not long before a
quilting circle forms and women from both the Amish and Englisch
worlds are crafting and socializing together-much to the
consternation of the furniture craftsman next door. Caleb Brand has
kept to himself since he lost his betrothed under scandalous
circumstances, and he could do without all the feminine chatter,
not to mention Katie Miller's carefree attitude. When Katie becomes
involved with her Englisch friends in promoting Pennsylvania Dutch
Days, some in town appreciate the new business it brings. But
others are upset about the flood of outsiders it attracts. When
acts of vandalism threaten Katie's shop, she turns to Caleb for
comfort and soon a fragile friendship forms. But will Caleb's
secret past prevent him from embracing a future with Katie? Or will
their fragile romance develop the strength to last a lifetime?

to a tragic accident. Since then, his wife Rachel has struggled to
raise their three children and run their dairy farm... Rachel's
friends and family have come forward to help. But all of their
constant advice, however well intentioned, puts undue pressure on
Rachel. And when Ezra's best friend, Gideon Zook, asks her
permission to build the greenhouse that Ezra had always promised
her, she finds his presence too painful a reminder of the past. As
spring turns to summer, and Rachel puts her heart into growing the
plants that have always brought her joy, can she discover the
courage to embrace new beginnings?

Returning to Pleasant Valley is giving Hannah Conroy a much-needed
chance at a new life. But now she must discover her true place in
the world ... Unexpected tragedy has left Hannah without her
soldier husband and a home for her baby son, Jamie. Seeking refuge,
she comes to live with her aunt in Pleasant Valley, a place she
hasn't seen since childhood, when her parents left the Mennonite
faith. Working in her aunt's bakery is a way for Hannah to get back
on her feet, but she isn't sure if she can live by tradition--or if
she and Jamie should stay for good. She finds an unexpected,
sympathetic listener in furniture maker William Brand. His stutter
makes him feel like a permanent outsider in his Amish community,
and he understands her loneliness. Hannah is irresistibly drawn to
the shy, caring William, and her education in speech therapy makes
it natural for her to want to help him speak more easily. But how
can she encourage his attention when she might someday leave
Pleasant Valley, and when her father-in-law, a military officer, is
scheming to take Jamie away from her? As William seeks the courage
to stand up for the woman who believes in him, Hannah must decide
where her true home lies--in the free, ever-changing world she
knows, or in the simpler, loving community she's found...
