Spend a year in Amish co untry with four sweet romances.

Rooted in Love

(previously published in An Amish Garden)

Rosemary Lantz is doing her best to run her family's household. She excels at all her tasks except one: gardening. Saul Petersheim has pursued Rosemary for years, but Rosemary keeps turning him down. What Saul doesn't know is that she has good reason — something no one can know — especially not him.

A Love for Irma Rose

The year is 1957, and young Irma Rose has a choice to make. Date the man who is "right" for her? Or give Jonas a chance, the wild and reckless suitor who refuses to take no for an answer? Irma Rose steps onto the path she believes God has planned for her, but when she loses her footing, she is forced to rethink her choice.

Patchwork Perfect

Eli Byler has been a widower for two years when he chooses to make a fresh start in Paradise, Pennsylvania. As Eli juggles the admiration of two women, he meets Miriam Fisher — the most unconventional Amish woman he's ever met. She doesn't fit the mold for what Eli is looking for, but it isn't long before Eli realizes that Miriam is everything he wants. But Miriam has no plans to get married — ever. Will Eli be able to change her mind?

When Christmas Comes Again

(previously published in An Amish Second Christmas)

Katherine knows the first Christmas without Elias will be hard for her and the children. But when a mysterious Englischer appears with photographs of her late husband, Katherine begins to wonder what other blessings Christmas could have in store.

      Amish in different stages of life find love despite difficult circumstances in this collection of four novellas from Wiseman (Plain Perfect). Each novella is around 90 pages and takes place in a different season. Lonely Rosemary longs for a partner, but she knows she can never be with the only man she could ever love. Irma Rose is finally allowed to date and quickly finds a perfect match only to realize her heart belongs to another. Eli is looking for a wife and, to his own surprise, finds three possible matches, the least likely of which manages to steal his heart. Katherine fears the first Christmas without her husband, but embraces the unexpected surprise of a poor Englischer that comes to stay. The romances are sweet but never go further, and the plot conclusions feel rushed. A glossary of Lancaster County Amish terms and descriptions of Amish tradition are helpful for those interested in learning more about the community. Discussion guides at the end of each novella make this a nice addition to a book club. Wiseman’s simple romances will please fans already well-read in Amish fiction.
