Plain & Fancy by Wanda E Brunstetter

Englischer Laura Meade enrolls in the Lancaster School of Design to further her education and get ideas from the Amish community for her work. When she encounters Eli Yoder at a farmer's market, she is smitten and Eli finds her compelling. When they meet a second time, Eli offers to give her a ride in his buggy which she accepts. Her friend, Darcy, tells her to be careful and not get too attached to the Amish man. Eli feels he can just remain friends with this girl who is so interesting to him. Well, as you can imagine, things heat up and the plot thickens. Laura decides to become Amish in order to get Eli to marry her. A good story of the trials of becoming Amish rather than being born Amish. A good read. Sandy Penton
