Plain Haven - Paperback

by Susan Lantz Simpson (Author)

Lilly Brandt was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now she is running for her life--straight into a small, obscure Amish community in Southern Maryland Now known as Hannah Kurtz, she vows to remain aloof since she doesn't expect to be in Cherry Hill long enough to form any attachments. But her head has neglected to inform her heart of this plan. She hadn't counted on meeting and being attracted to the kind, young man with amazing blue eyes.

Jacob Beiler, a skilled young furniture maker, has made a vow of his own. After being jilted by the girl he trusted right before he is about to propose, he decides to focus strictly on honing his craft and guarding his heart. When Hannah Kurtz drops into his world, she drops into his mending heart as well, thawing the wall of ice he has meticulously erected. Against his better judgement, he allows himself to care again and to trust another woman.

When the Amish community discovers Hannah is not Amish and that she isn't even Hannah Kurtz, Jacob feels betrayed yet again. Will he be able to forgive her necessary deception or will he turn his back on her despite her desperate attempts to reason with him?
