Amish Blessings

God always had a plan. But how could falling in love with an Englischer be God's plan for her? Young Cassie Weaver only wants what is expected of an Amish woman: a good Amish husband and a large family. But she's happy as Job and Dinah Keim's housekeeper, helping Dinah, who is losing her sight due to diabetes. For two decades the Keims have prayed for the salvation of their two children who left the community in a cloud of shame and mystery. Mason knew there was more to his mother's past than she let on, but nothing could have prepared him for learning about his Amish roots upon his mother's sudden death. Even more surprising, his mother named her Amish parents, Job and Dinah, as guardians to her five children. Now Mason has to trust that this couple, and their pretty housekeeper, can take care of his younger siblings, even when all he wants is to take care of them himself. As the children adjust to this new lifestyle, Mason finds himself pulled back to the Keims' home. Yes, he wants to see his siblings, but it's the conversations with Cassie that keep him coming back for more. Is there more to this Amish faith and how does it play into his own past? Cassie guards against her growing feelings for Mason, because there can be no happy ending for a Plain girl in love with an Englisch man . . . right? Award-winning Amish romance novelist Kelly Irvin is back with a heartwarming tale of the power of love to heal all wounds.

Abigail Bontrager comes home from her waitressing job one day to find a woman in her parents' living room who claims to be her birth mother. The woman who raised Abigail- Abigail's mother- doesn't deny it: this English woman gave Abigail up for adoption to the Bontragers the day she was born. The news sends Abigail spiraling into an identity crisis. Is she really Amish? Does this explain why she's never quite fit in, why she's so clumsy and awkward? Does it explain why she's been slow to find a steady beau? She's determined to find out, even if that means leaving the only family, she's ever known to meet the family she could've had. Even if that means she'll never return to Haven. Owen Kurtz wants to be Abigail's beau. He thinks they're headed that direction. The news that she has English birth parents throws him for a loop. When she decides to leave Haven to spend time with her English family in Abilene, Owen's caught between wanting her to come back and the feeling he should move on. Having lost his own mother when he was only sixteen, he can't imagine having two mothers who want him. His despair deepens when his father decides to sell the family farm to concentrate on their construction business. Owen's dream of growing sunflowers for a living is slipping from his grasp. The Warmth of Sunshine is the story of two people, who have to find themselves before they can find each other. Coming to grips with their pasts will allow Abigail and Owen to navigate the present and all its uncertainties. Will it allow them to forge a future together?

During the most difficult season of her life, how could she know whether their meeting was a gift from God, or another temptation? Maisy never expected that a Plain girl like her could have her heart stolen by an Englisch boy. But when her rumspringa ends and Maisy realizes she's pregnant, the reality of their choices, and their differences, sets in. Maisy knows she will never leave her faith to marry her baby's father. But she also knows the road to acceptance as an unwed mother in an Amish community will be long and hard. To protect her family from the scandal, she goes to live with her cousin in Haven, Kansas, where she will have some solitude to figure out what kind of future she might have. In Haven Maisy begins to find her way, thanks in no small part to Joshua Lapp, a Plain man who's made it clear he isn't bothered by her situation or ashamed to be seen with her, despite the bishop's warnings. But Joshua has struggled with his faith ever since the death of his twin brother, leaving Maisy to wonder: How can two people who are so lost ever help each other discover Gott's plans for their future?
