Joyful River #02: An Amish Bride

- Blurb -

Warm and uplifting, Rosalind Lauer welcomes readers back to Joyful River, Pennsylvania, a faith-filled Amish community living side-by-side with the English world and overcoming culture clashes with compassion, love, and abiding trust in Gott' s plan. . . Caught in a love triangle, can a dairy farmer draw on his faith to show the woman he loves that he' s the better match? For Sam Lapp, every day spent working on his family' s dairy farm is a reminder of Gott' s bounty and goodness. And he' s found the person he wants to share that life with. Sam remembers the exact moment he stopped seeing Sadie Beiler as just his sister' s best friend, and saw instead the graceful, loving woman she' s become. If only he had seen it before Sadie began courting someone else. . . When Sadie first caught the eye of a handsome auctioneer, she felt blessed, hopeful that marriage would provide an escape from her troubled home. But as months stretch on without a proposal, Sadie discovers a worrying new side to her beau-and a growing kinship with Sam. Thoughtful, hardworking, kind to his visiting English cousins and to her, Sam shows Sadie that real love is just a stone' s throw away. But when an unexpected obstacle forces a separation between them, can steadfast faith make Sadie an Amish bride at last?
