An Amish schoolteacher finds love with the help of her matchmaking grandparents in this gentle romance by the author of Return to Huckleberry Hill.
There’s nothing irrepressible eighty-somethings Anna and Felty Helmuth of Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin, like better than a challenge. And the chance to matchmake their feisty granddaughter is their most delightful task yet . . .
Elsie Stutzman’s plain-spoken ways got her in trouble once before, so she needs to make a good impression at her new teaching job. But she’s not about to let disabled student Wally Sensenig work below his potential. And she definitely won’t put up with his hot-headed older brother sabotaging her efforts, no matter how handsome he is . . .
Sam is nearly at the end of his rope caring for his ailing, widowed mother, working their farm, and raising his siblings. He’ll admit Elsie’s ideas are bringing Wally out of his angry shell—but why does she have to be as stubborn as she is pretty? Yet as it turns out, Elsie has taught Sam something about himself as well. And he’ll do whatever it takes to make up for his mistakes—and win her heart forever.
