Amish Mercies
3 primary works
Book 1
Faith faces an impossible situation: Should she do the right thing and bring heartache to nearly everyone she knows or deny her true self and always wonder . . . what if?
Sixteen-year-old Faith has worked full-time in her parents' restaurant since she finished eighth grade. She loves her Amish community-and the romantic attentions of her longtime friend, Gideon.
When her sister seems to be getting too friendly with Englischers, and her parents are in a buggy accident, Faith wants to escape into her dream of joining the church and getting married.
But then a local newspaper runs a story about a child named Adriana who was kidnapped fifteen years earlier, and everything Faith has held true comes into question.
Suddenly the community Faith has known her whole life seems unreal. Can she even trust her own family? And how will she ever find home again if she no longer belongs in the world she knows best?
Book 2
A story of renewed love, boundless hope, and a little help from angels above.
He lost her once to a rash decision.
He will not lose her again.
On the eve of a new year, Catherine Glick is expecting her bu of five years to propose. Instead, the unexpected arrival of an old boyfriend, Elijah, sends her life spiraling out of control. When a rash decision damages her current relationship, Catherine leaves for Florida to work in her cousin's bakery-anything to flee the source of her shame.
Elijah Graber knows he hurt Catherine when he left their Amish district six years ago. He's determined to explain his actions, even if it means accompanying her to Florida. Perhaps their two-day bus trip together will provide enough time for him to win her back.
Just when Elijah is starting to tear down the walls Catherine has built, their bus skids on an icy road-and amid the mayhem and tragedy that follow, Catherine disappears. Elijah's friends urge him to prepare for the worst, but Elijah holds on to his hope in God and refuses to give up his search for Catherine. With supernatural nudging from the most unexpected places, Elijah sets out to find the love he once lost-no matter the cost.
Book 3
She'd told herself she'd never go back home. But that was before the accident-before life changed forever.
After the tragic death of her parents, Jonica Muller must return to the Amish community she left in shame five years ago. Tasked with settling her father's estate, she plans to keep her visit as brief as possible so she can return to Cedar Ridge and start a life with Ephraim, a widower who has offered her and her five-year-old son the stability of a family.
But Jonica's childhood home in Posen, Michigan, won't let her go so quickly. Her father's sister, Aenti Edna, is showing signs of a slipping mind. To Jonica's alarm, Edna's begun entertaining a mysterious redheaded Englischer who has unclear intentions toward the aging woman and the Mullers' property.
Caleb is a young farmer working Edna's land, trying to hide his own secret shame from his family and his girlfriend, Darleen. But when Jonica asks him to come to Edna's aid, she unwittingly sets events in motion that change everyone's ability to live in the shadows of their lives.
Steadfast Mercy is a tender love story at the intersection of heartbreak, forgiveness, and grace.
