Book 2 of the Amish Vines and Orchards series asks: can the three
faithfully follow God’s leading and build a new home and orchard
in Maine? Or will this new beginning lead to more ruin and heartbreak?
About This Book
The tornado that devastated Kings’ Orchard pushed Rhoda, Samuel,
and Jacob to make a new start in Maine. Are they strong enough to
withstand the challenges of establishing an Amish community—and brave
enough to face the secrets that move with them?
On the eve
of their departure to begin a new Old Order Amish community outside of
Unity, Maine, Rhoda Byler is shocked to discover that choices made by
her business partner and friend, Samuel King, have placed her and her
unusual gifts directly into the path of her district’s bishop and
preachers. She is furious with Samuel and is fearful that the Kings will
be influenced by the way her leaders see her, and not what they know to
be true—that Rhoda’s intuition is a gift from God.
Jacob King
won’t be swayed by community speculation. He loves Rhoda, believes in
her, and wants to build a future with her in Maine. But when the ghosts
of his past come calling and require him to fulfill a great debt, can he
shake their hold before it destroys what he has with Rhoda? Samuel has a
secret of his own—one he’ll go to great lengths to keep hidden, even if
it means alienating those closest to him. Throwing himself into
rehabilitating the once-abandoned orchard, Samuel turns to a surprising
new ally.
