The Amish Carpenter's Heart

At thirty-seven, Leah Miller is Miracle Creek's devoted schoolteacher-a woman the community admires but doesn't understand, not when her hands are as skilled with a chisel as they are gentle with children. Three times she's refused marriage to men who valued only her homemaking, never her God-given woodworking talent. She's made peace with solitude... until Peter Hostetler rides into town, seven years younger and seeing her as no one else ever has.

When fire devastates Peter's district, he seeks Leah's expertise to rebuild furniture. But with every shared blueprint and quiet evening in her workshop-his rough fingers brushing hers as they pass tools, his hazel eyes softening when she laughs-a love as carefully crafted as their furniture takes shape.

Now Leah faces a choice: Dare she believe this passionate, younger man's love is truly Gott's answer? Or will the weight of tradition break what God himself has joined?

A story of divine fingerprints and daring hope, The Amish Carpenter's Heart asks: When God's gift comes wrapped in unexpected paper, do we trust-or turn it away?
