These three Amish Novellas complement each other in that they are about neighbors in the same community. This great technique visits Leah Petersheim and her family. Leah, at eighteen, wants to write stories about the Amish and the Englischer. She isn't interested in the duties of a proper wife and this is distracting her daed and mamm to no end. Arron Lantz has other ideas. An uplifting beginning to this tale.
Rebecca Miller's story began five years ago when her sister Lizzie fell through the ice while skating and drowned. She has been grieving ever so long and is only now making head-way towards healing. Ben Weaver has cared for her for a very long time and hoped to sometime be able to ask Rebecca to marry him. Rebecca is coming out of her depression with an attitude and Ben as well as her family aren't sure what to do. Ben and Rebecca have a rocky journey through this well-written story but alls well that ends well.
Amanda Graber and her family live next door to the abandoned Bontrager homestead. Ten years prior, a young Amanda and next door neighbor Josiah Bontrager were close friends. Without warning or a goodbye, Josiah and his father were gone, leaving Amanda wondering what had happened to them. Josiah has returned to sell the home-place and Amanda wants to re-establish their friendship. Josiah's reluctance mystifies Amanda and their working together makes a great ending to this series of novellas. If you like stories about the Amish, this is a very good read. Sandy Penton
