      A Place of Their Own

      When handsome stranger Jedidiah Lapp saves her twin brothers’ lives, Sarah Mast offers him her heartfelt thanks. And a cherry pie! But she never expects to see him again. When they meet once more at Sunday services, Sarah begins to feel something special for him. Jedidiah is eager to know the blushing beauty, and asks permission to court her. Soon, he can see Sarah as part of his future. But her family is in Delaware, his in Pennsylvania. Dare he ask her to leave all she knows behind for him and build a life in Happiness, Pennsylvania?

      “And so you are stuck with me.”

      “Nay, I am not stuck, Jedidiah Lapp.”

      Her answer delighted him, and he studied her fondly. He would like the memory of the evening to take home to Happiness with him.

      He held out his hand, and Sarah looked at it a moment before their fingers touched as she accepted his help onto the wagon seat.

      “All set?” he asked, and she nodded. “Are you cold?” She shook her head. “Are you going to be silent during the entire ride?”

      “Nay,” she said with what sounded like horror.

      He laughed. “I am teasing you, Sarah Mast.”

      He saw her lips curve before her laughter joined his.

      “Shall we take the long way home?” he asked, expecting her to decline.

      To his surprise, she said, “You are the driver.”

      He drove at the slowest pace he could manage. He would enjoy this time with her; having her on the seat next to him was enough to keep him happy.

      He didn’t like the thought of leaving her, of never seeing her again, but what could he do?
