An Amish Schoolroom
From three bestselling authors of Amish fiction come three charming stories of new school years and new romance.
A Class for Laurel by Amy Clipston
Adventurous Laurel Weaver leaves Pennsylvania to answer a newspaper ad for a teaching position in Colorado. She stays with handsome Glen Troyer's family, and they become close. However, she never intended to stay in Colorado, and his family worries Glen may choose to follow her back to Pennsylvania or be left with a broken heart. Now Laurel can't bear to think of leaving Glen and her beloved students, but she's beginning to feel like she's out of options. Will Laurel and Glen push through the obstacles and fight for love?
A Lesson on Love by Kathleen Fuller
Priscilla Miller left her Amish community twelve years ago to pursue her dream of being a country singer, but she's missed her faith and her family. Now, she's moving in with her cousin, Hiram, in Birch Creek to be a schoolteacher. Micah Glick recently moved there as well to put the past behind him. As the community comes together to build a new schoolhouse, Priscilla and Micah are thrown together. They bond over their love of music, but soon it appears that Priscilla's dreams of fame just might be coming true. She has to give up something, and Micah worries that it will be their faith . . . and his heart.
Wendy's Twenty Reasons by Shelley Shepard Gray
Wendy Schwartz is used to people underestimating her, but she's sure she can be a great teacher. Unfortunately, it's a disaster not long after she starts, and soon her job is in jeopardy. To make matters more complicated, she worries that she's falling for the son of the older couple she's boarding with. Lewis Weaver knows he shouldn't have a romantic relationship with a tenant, but he can't help but be drawn to her. When a dangerous ice storm traps Wendy in the schoolroom with her students, uncomfortable truths will have to be faced by everyone in town that just might change the future for everyone.
The Making of A Class for Laurel
Writing this novella gave me the opportunity to write about new characters who haven't been featured in any of my other books. The story was inspired by a story my Amish friend shared, and I enjoyed researching Colorado. I hope readers enjoy getting to know Laurel and Glen.
