Amish of Marigold

Finding a husband is serious business. And serious business requires serious planning. Charity Raber is one of many single women who came to Birch Creek, Ohio, with one goal in mind: secure a husband from among the desperate bachelors a newspaper advertisement claimed inhabited the town. Even though that claim proved to be nothing more than a cruel prank, Charity is still hopeful that her happy ending might be within reach when she's set up on a date with Jesse Bontrager. That is until Jesse not-so-gently shares that he has no interest in a relationship with anyone, and especially not with her. One year later, Charity is working as a caretaker for a kind, elderly English woman in the nearby town of Marigold. She's also working hard on a brand-new courtship plan. A plan that absolutely does not involve Jesse Bontrager. But when he moves next door and is made aware of her scheming, Charity vows to prove that her plan is foolproof. Meanwhile, Jesse is sure she'll make a fool of herself. And for some reason he's not willing to let that happen. This stubborn bachelor and determined bachelorette will soon learn that their plans rarely work out as expected, but God's plans always will.

Perry and Daisy didn't ask to be set up by their well-meaning Amish families, but they soon enter a pact with the high hopes of evading their families' match-making plans. Until it leads to more... Farrier Perry Bontrager has had enough of his four happily married older brothers' attempts to find him a bride. When he finally reaches the end of his patience with them, he moves to nearby Marigold to escape their relentless matchmaking. But when his brothers there set him up with Daisy Hershberger, he's desperate to end their interference. Daisy, who was left at the altar by her ex-fiancé, Reuel, is forced to move to Marigold by her overprotective parents, who want her to have a fresh start. But Daisy is still in love with Reuel and believes that if she becomes a better cook, housekeeper, gardener, and most importantly, smarter, then he will come back to her. When she's tricked into going out with Perry, she reveals her frustration with her family. She and Perry decide to help each other break free of their families' meddling ways. Their plan works, but when Perry finds out that Daisy is trying to change herself for someone who doesn't deserve her, his feelings start to change. The pact they entered starts to shift as they realize that long-held beliefs about themselves might not be as accurate as they once thought.
