An Amish girl prays for answers. Will she find them?


Life in the small Amish community of Orthause, Pennsylvania is predictable to Hannah Zook. As the teacher of the one-classroom school, Hannah is happy with her life and relationship with God.

The only question she has concerns Eli Reimer, the Mennonite man who wishes to marry her. Eli is the sort of man Hannah has always dreamed of marrying. But in order to marry him, she must give up her faith and join his.

But when a man is found murdered, Hannah ends up with much more than romance on her mind. The victim’s wife Martha recently left him, and everybody knows why. Now she’s the number one suspect. Hannah knows her friend is innocent and will do everything to prove it.

She is joined in her quest by her childhood friend, Abram, who quietly supports her even when others tell her to mind her own business.

And as she works to solve the murder, Hannah might just find the answers to her prayers about her future–and he might have been under her nose the whole time.

Hannah: Jessica Chastain

And now, let's check out her fantastic new book!

Synopsis:
Gently bred young ladies don’t run away from home to find employment, but when forced to choose between marrying a brutish oaf or becoming another man’s mistress, Susanna makes an unconventional decision. Following her passion for music, she flees to London with dreams of securing a position as a harpist. Becoming entangled with a handsome violinist who calls himself Kit, but who seems too aristocratic for a working-class musician, may be more problematic than sleeping in the streets.
Kit's attention is captured by Susanna’s breath-taking talent, admirable grace, and winsome smiles…until a lawman exposes the new harpist as a runaway bride and a thief. With peril lurking in the shadows, Susanna’s imminent danger not only forces Kit to choose between his better judgment and his heart, but he must also embrace the life to which he swore he would never return.

Sadie Mae Cummings is all set to marry her childhood sweetheart, Kyle, when she is assigned to tutor Lincoln, the new college football running back. This sophomore phenomenon has all the girls on campus knocking on his door. But Sadie isn't interested in his advances.

After two years, Sadie’s relationship with Lincoln ends, and she is left having to put the pieces of her life back together. She desires nothing more than to recapture her relationship with Kyle.

Leanne coughed into her hand. “Sadie, may I speak to you in private for a moment?” She smiled at the others. “Yesterday, I missed an opportunity to talk with your leader.”
Sadie nodded, and then said, yes, following behind her. But instead of stopping a few feet away as she’d expected, Leanne continued walking until they reached the hallway to the fellowship hall. Staring out the window, she gestured outside.
“The grounds look fabulous, Sadie. Your hard work paid off. I see that Kyle approved the work after all.”
Sadie squinted at her. “Thank you. It was a labor of love. We all enjoyed it.”
 “I’m about to leave for the airport, but I’ll get to know you better on my next visit.” Leanne grinned mischievously. “I’m curious about your motives, Sadie. Your decorations mesmerized Kyle on Friday. Either you are a very clever lady or extremely guileless.”
