- Synopsis
- Patricia Johns&’ sensitive storytelling brings depth and heart to this tender story of second chances, as an Amish woman embarks on marriage with the gruff farmer next door . . . Once, Leah Riehl prayed for a husband. The man she loved chose another, wanting the children that Leah can&’t provide. But she&’s found a measure of peace, keeping house for her brother, Simon, and teaching in a nearby town. Now though, Simon&’s debts to an Englisher gambling ring have left Leah with a desperate dilemma—and a surprising offer from her scarred, reclusive neighbor. Jebadiah King needs to marry in order to claim his family farm. A union, for appearances only, will help them both. Jeb knows his scars make him a less than ideal husband, but he can be a useful one. It&’s the least that Leah deserves. But despite the promises he made to himself, Jeb can&’t help longing for his lovely, warmhearted new wife. His first marriage brought heartbreak, but Leah&’s gentle smiles spark hope again. Are they willing to take the leap that love requires—and open themselves to all the challenges and joy a true marriage could bring?
