Inspirational author Rosalind Lauer debuts on the Kensington list with a new series filled with small-town coziness. An Amish Homecoming introduces readers to the patchwork quilt of life and love in the Pennsylvania Amish community of Joyful River, where new beginnings and old ways meet with faith, hope, and compassion. . . Essie Lapp' s birthday is doubly blessed. There' s a delicious meal to savor with her family, and the sweet gift of time spent with her beau, Harlan. Over two years they' ve forged a bond as strong and hopeful as a tree reaching for the sky. To practical-minded Essie, there' s comfort in knowing exactly what her future will bring. Yet Gott has his plan, and it soon turns her family' s world upside down. . . Essie' s widowed English uncle has brought his troubled teenage daughters back to their mother' s Amish community, convinced it' s the fresh start they need. Essie strives to welcome her cousins, but adapting to plain living won' t be easy, even if the rewards are great. As cultures clash and hearts collide, Essie feels the first stirrings of doubt about Harlan' s commitment to her. Yet as the seasons change, and the heat of summer gives way to crisp, ripe autumn, this homecoming might mean a bountiful beginning. . .
