Antique Store Owners Offer Romance Advice to a Smitten Carpenter
Welcome to Sugarcreek, Ohio, where the Amish schoolteacher has a determined admirer. Tragically losing her parents as a child, Lisa Miller has grown up being afraid of loving and losing. She dedicates herself to teaching at an Amish schoolhouse and helping the grandparents who raised her, all the while avoiding the advances of newcomer Paul Herchberger. Paul enjoys antiques and meets Orley Troyer while looking for unique old milk bottles at yard sales. Orley and his wife offer prayers and advice as Paul tries to reach Lisa’s closed heart. But when secrets are revealed, will Lisa use them as an excuse to close herself off again?
This is a clean Amish romance
and the second book in the Creektown Discoveries series by Wanda E.
Brunstetter. We find Lisa miller filling her day teaching at the Amish school
and not building strong relationships with others as she didn't want to suffer
more loss. Paul Herschberger came to Sugarcreek to work for his uncle after
being jilted by his intended and best friend. He was drawn to Lisa from the
start and went slow in trying to win her friendship and trust. Maggie, a stray
dog who attached herself to Lisa, brought healing to Lisa with her resilient to
overcome the past with unconditional love. There were parts that didn't really
fit the story it seemed with the author bringing in characters from book one.
Although, Lois and Orley Troyer from the Memory Keeper shop were instrumental
in their wisdom, guidance and prayers for Lisa and Paul.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publisher without any
obligation to write a review. I have shared my own opinion.
