The Amish Candy Maker
A letter brings him toAgnes Zook has found herself on her own in a small Amish community in Mackinac County after a tragedy took the life of her parents and siblings. Most of the Amish call her “off in den Kopf” (strange) since she’s starting her own business and forging her own way in the community instead of relying on the bishop to take care of her. Since she’s viewed as non-submissive and too-forward for an Amish woman she’s not courted by other young men in the area.
Isaac
Mast is on the verge of leaving the Amish church. He’s become a sought-after
Auctioneer and has a thriving business, but he feels confined by the strict
rules. When his brother is severely injured in a wild fire, Isaac receives a
letter from his sister-in-law, begging him to come to Mackinac County to help
out while his brother is hospitalized for skin grafts and his wife is with him.
They have young children that can’t be left alone. Isaac agrees but is unsure
how to manage the children when he has weekend auctions he’s expected to
attend. Agnes may be an answer to prayer.
When
Isaac and Agnes meet, sparks fly, but everything changes. While neither of them
fit within the structures of the Amish faith, could their differences be the
one thing that helps them form a deeper connection to their faith . . . and
each other?

Firestorm
After a stalker breaks into their home, Bridget
Behr and her family migrate from the bustling Amish community where she grew up
in Ohio
Due
to a lack of construction jobs in his Florida community to keep Gabriel Lapp out of
trouble, he has been sent to Michigan to work. His father is
desperate for his son to settle down. When the Behr family walks into Gabe’s home in
the middle of a thunderstorm, he learns of their circumstances and offers to
help them rebuild. For Gabe, the beautiful Bridget he teasingly calls “the
recluse,” after he discovers she doesn’t attend youth events, confuses him like
none other.
As
Gabriel and Bridget grow closer, they realize there is more to a person than
meets the eye. Just as Bridget is finally settling into her new life, and
perhaps finding love, tragedy strikes. Now Bridget and her family must decide
if they should move to another Amish community, or dare to fight for the future
they’d hoped for in Mackinac County
Firestorm by Laura V. Hilton is an artfully crafted novel with well-developed characters, a unique story-line and theme, with twists and turns to make it a page-turner.
