The Widow’s Second Chance
Martha King has been a widow for only a few months, but already the community wants her to remarry. But after her childless marriage, she isn’t in a rush to give her heart to another man—until Elijah Lapp. The handsome—and younger—Eli hires on at Martha’s farm to earn extra money to fund his dream of owning a carriage shop. But the more time Eli spends with Martha, the more he realizes his life should also include a wife. Can Eli convince the Amish beauty to overcome their age difference and accept a future with him?
Eli stepped out of his vehicle and tied up his horse.
She blushed. The two-wheeled carriage he’d driven resembled the type used for courting. He grinned when he saw her standing a few yards away.
“Martha! Guder mariye!” He looked glad to see her.
“Gut morning, Eli. Working alone today?”
“Ja. Isaac is helping Dat on the farm.”
“Why aren’t you helping your vadder?”
“He says he doesn’t need my help. I’d rather be here. You pay me to work.” His smile held pure masculine appreciation.
Was Eli flirting with her?
“What are you planning to do today?” she asked as he continued to smile at her.
“Finish a few items on Dat’s list.” He studied her for a long moment. His smile disappeared. “I’ll get to work.”
As she pinned up some towels on the clothesline, she flashed a look in Eli’s direction. What is it about this man that makes me unable to ignore him? She recalled the two men in her life who had hurt her.
Not again. It wouldn’t happen a third time. Not with anyone.
