The Place She Stayed

A quiet, warm Amish romance about the difference between wanting to stay and being able to.

Grace Yoder came to Bird-in-Hand for one school year. She left behind a comfortable life in Holmes County — and Daniel, who had been patient and kind and almost enough — to take a one-room schoolhouse position in Lancaster County. It was meant to be temporary. A chance to teach, to see a little more of the world, and then come home. She did not expect to find that Bird-in-Hand felt, in ways she couldn't yet name, more like home than the place she'd left. But wanting to stay and being able to stay are different things. There is the school board's decision, still pending. There is her family waiting in Holmes County, certain she is coming back. And there is Jonas — steady, careful Jonas — who has not asked her to choose, but whose presence has become something she cannot imagine leaving behind. The Place She Stayed is the eighth book in the Bird-in-Hand series — a quiet, warm Amish romance set in the heart of Lancaster County.

Where the Truth Lies

A sweet standalone Amish romance about the courage it takes to trust again — and the difference between a man who seems certain and a man who simply is.

Joanna Schrock has spent too long becoming very good at other people's love stories. She can read a courtship from three farms away. She can spot the second helping accepted only because it means staying a few minutes longer, the studied carelessness of a man who wants to be noticed noticing. What she cannot do is trust herself — not since the kind of heartbreak that leaves no one to blame and nowhere to put the hurt. When Levi Miller asks to walk her home one evening — plainly, without hedging, in a way nobody has ever quite asked her anything before — Joanna finds she has run out of light answers. He is steady, unhurried, and entirely honest about what he wants. She has no idea what to do with that. A sweet standalone Amish romance set in the world of the Bird-in-Hand series — about the courage it takes to trust again, and the difference between a man who seems certain and a man who simply is.

The Frost Before the Bloom

A standalone Amish romance about a silence that finally finds its voice — and the warmth that cracks it open.

Susanna Lapp has never met a silence she couldn't fill. Cheerful, capable, and endlessly taken for granted, she's spent her whole life being loved for her usefulness and rarely believed about anything deeper. When the Weaver family needs help nursing a bitter, grieving grandfather, Susanna is the last person Aaron Weaver expects to want in his house — and the first person in seven years he lets himself need. Aaron buried his father at seventeen, and buried his heart along with him, certain that needing anyone is a danger he can't survive twice. But Susanna's steady warmth cracks something open in the Weaver farmhouse that's stayed closed for years — in his grandfather, in his mother, and finally, terrifyingly, in himself. When a single misunderstanding convinces Susanna that she was never truly wanted, Aaron will have to face the fear that's kept him at arm's length from everyone since he lost his father — before he loses her too. A standalone Amish romance, The Frost Before the Bloom is the sixth book in the Bird in Hand series. Fans will especially enjoy glimpses of familiar faces along the way!
