Lorie's Heart

“A strikingly different Amish tale of finding family, love and forgiveness” from the author of A New Love for Charlotte (Fresh Fiction).

Welcome back to Wells Landing, Oklahoma, the tranquil Amish community where still waters run deep and a brave young woman sets out to discover her faith, her family, and herself . . .

Lorie Kauffman is grief-stricken when her father passes away unexpectedly. But her heartache quickly turns to bewilderment when she discovers he''d been leading two lives—one of simplicity and hard work in Wells Landing, and one fraught with painful ordeals in Tulsa. As she starts digging into her family''s past, Lorie finds herself torn between the Amish world and the Englisch world—and she''s no longer certain where she belongs . . .

Lorie knows that if she leaves Wells Landing, she may never be able to return. But what if her destiny lies in the outside world—the world her father knew so well? Change is never easy, but with a bit of courage and the help of a handsome and kind-hearted Englischer, she just may find the peace, acceptance, and love she''s been longing for . . .
