A Family Comes Courting…
The Amish Spinster Club series begins!
With his orphaned nephew depending on him, Amish carpenter Eli Troyer moves to Harmony Creek Hollow to start over. And when schoolteacher Miriam Hartz offers to teach Eli, who is hard of hearing, how to read lips, he can’t refuse. Spending time with Miriam forges a bond between them. Can two wounded hearts overcome their pasts to make a family together?

“The more we work together, the quicker you will learn.
Kyle must learn to face you and enunciate when he speaks.”
“Enough what when he speaks?”
“E-nun-ci-ate. To say something clearly.”
Eli nodded, flustered he’d misunderstood Miriam.
She touched his face. Startled, he froze.
“Eli, do not be embarrassed. Even people with perfect hearing miss words.”
Was his pain emblazoned there? The last thing he wanted was her pity.
He realized how he’d misread her when she said, “Your hearing loss is nothing to be ashamed of.”
“I know.”
“You say that. But you do not act that way. It will get easier.” She smiled as if he were one of her scholars.
Was that how she saw him? That was what he was, but when she touched him on his arm to get his attention, he couldn’t think of her as anything other than a charming woman.
She was his teacher—and his neighbor. Nothing else. He was being a fool. He wasn’t going to invite more pain into his life. Not when he’d come to Harmony Creek to start over.
Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
—Deuteronomy 31:6
