A Merry Heart paperback, 288 pages, $12.95
Book one. Miriam Stoltzfus was once filled with wonderful dreams
for a future with the man she'd loved since childhood-until he moved
away and married someone else, leaving her heart a bitter shell. Now
Miriam is known in her community as the "old maid" schoolteacher with a
"heart of stone." Amos Hilty wants to court Miriam, but she's
certain that he only wants a mother for his daughter and a wife for
convenience. Her heart warms to a more interesting friendship in the
form of Nick McCormick, a newspaper reporter outside her Amish faith,
who is easy to talk to-and, incredibly, makes her smile again. Will
Miriam ever let go of her bitter spirit and surrender her will to God?
Or will she leave the Amish faith and find what she longs for in the
outside world? Copyright 2006 Wanda E. Brunstetter

Looking for a Miracle paperback, 288 pages, $12.95
Book two. As a child, Rebekah suffered a freak accident that left
her legs paralyzed. Now confined to a wheelchair most of the time, she
feels that she will never measure up to the expectations of her
Pennsylvania Amish community that a woman marry and raise a family.
She longs to be loved for who she is, but she has come to believe that
marriage is not for her and that she will always be a burden to her
family. When Daniel Beachy-who has long seemed smitten by Rebekah's
cousin-begins to spend time with Rebekah, she believes it is only
because he feels sorry for her and is interested in obtaining her new
business. After all, what man would choose a woman with a handicap
such as hers for a wife? Will Rebekah ever find the miracle she is
looking for? Copyright 2006 Wanda E Brunstetter

Plain and Fancy paperback, $12.95
Book 3. Laura Meade grew up with all the modern conveniences and frills that her fancy English world could offer. While studying interior design at a school in Lancaster Pennsylvania, she becomes fascinated with the Amish who live in the area and she seeks to learn more about their culture. When Laura meets Eli Yoder, one of the Plain People, she falls hopelessly in love. Never much of a churchgoer, Laura has no real concept of God's love or the need to attend church. Eli, a baptized member of the Amish church, is enamored with Laura, as well. However, the rules of his church forbid him to marry outside the faith, and he knows that should he decide to leave, he will face a shunning. Is it good for two people-one plain, and the other fancy-to fall in love? Will Laura and Eli find a way to be together? Copyright 2006 Wanda E Brunstetter

The Hope Chest paperback, $12.95
Book 4. Rachel Beachy desires and hopes for something she can't have-her sister Anna's boyfriend. Silas Swartley has been in love with the spirited Anna since they were children, and Rachel, the tomboy, has loved Silas for nearly as long. Like Job from the Bible, Rachel feels that her swiftly moving days are spent without hope-hope of ever making Silas take notice of her. But when Anna unexpectedly leaves the Amish faith, Rachel's hope is rekindled. She initiates a campaign to win Silas's heart and beings to fill her hope chest when she discovers how much she and Silas have in common. Can Silas set the pain of Anna's rejection aside and see Rachel as anything ore than a tomboy who is little more than a child? Will Rachel be disappointed in Silas and in God, or will she learn the true meaning of hope? Copyright 2006 Wanda E. Brunstetter
