A Reluctant Bride She never wanted to marry. He hopes to make amends for past wrongs. Can love find a way to heal both of their hearts? An Unbroken Heart An argument. A crash. In an instant, Joanna’s world is changed forever. A Love Made New Abigail Schrock knows God can make all things new, but does that include her broken heart?
All three novels from bestselling author Kathleen Fuller’s Amish Brides of Birch Creek series together in one collection. The Teacher's Bride When an accident puts schoolteacher Christian out of commission, a new community member named Ruby Glick takes over his classroom. But Ruby’s exuberant teaching style clashes with Christian's careful methods and he worries his students will never be the same. With a track record of catastrophe, Ruby always feels too clumsy, too distracted, too . . . much. Desperate for a chance to prove that she can do more than make mistakes in her life, she throws herself into her new teaching position. What she doesn’t anticipate is that Christian's heart is slowly catching up with his mind—and she, too, must decide whether to follow logic or love. The Farmer's Bride Martha Detweiler has a problem many Amish women her age would envy: she’s the only single woman in a community of young men, and they’re all competing for her favor. Overwhelmed by the unwanted attention, Martha finds herself constantly fleeing from her would-be suitors. Birch Creek’s resident matchmaker, Cevilla Schlabach, suggests a solution: Martha and the bishop’s son, Seth Yoder, should pretend they are dating. What better way to keep the other young men away? The Innkeeper's Bride When Selah Ropp returns to Birch Creek, she is a different person than when she left. Levi Stoll and his family spent a year transforming a large English house into a small inn. Now that they are open for business, Levi is pleased to have Selah join them as an employee—as long as his grandmother doesn’t try any matchmaking schemes on the two of them. After all, Selah seems as guarded as he feels, and the last thing he wants is for anyone to remind him of his history.
Written in Love When a postal error creates pen pals of two young Amish people, can they put behind their past mistakes to see the bright future God has written for them? The Promise of a Letter A letter brings him back to his Amish family. It will take someone truly extraordinary to make him stay. Words from the Heart Ivy Yoder thought she had found the man she would marry, but she returns to her Amish community of Birch Creek with a broken heart. When a family friend asks for her help in cleaning out an attic, she's grateful for the chance to get her mind off the betrayal.
