An unexpected perfect match...
An Amish single mother with a secret past...
Searching for a fresh start at Christmastime.
Caught up in a scandal in her Amish community, Phoebe Miller moves to her cousin’s farm in Delaware hoping for forgiveness and a second chance. The last thing Phoebe expects is to slowly fall for bachelor Joshua Miller. But Joshua doesn’t know the secret that made her leave her old life behind. Can their blossoming love survive the truth?
EMMA MILLER lives quietly in her old farmhouse in rural Delaware. Fortunate enough to have been born into a family of strong faith, she grew up on a dairy farm, surrounded by loving parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. Emma was educated in local schools and once taught in an Amish schoolhouse. When she’s not caring for her large family, reading and writing are her favorite pastimes.

“What was Ginger saying?” Joshua asked.
“She said not to let you monopolize all my time.”
He sighed. “And what did you say to that? Because I was... I was kind of hoping you’d let me walk around and introduce you.”
Phoebe pressed her lips together, not sure how to respond.
She met his gaze. “Do you have a girl?”
He shook his head.
She felt her heart give a little trip. “Sweet on someone?”
He tilted his head. “You could say that.”
Against her will, Phoebe felt an overwhelming sense of disappointment. She looked down at the grass at her feet. “Then you should go be with her.”
He was quiet so long that at last she looked up at him and found him studying her.
“I can’t,” he said very quietly.
She held his gaze, feeling a little light-headed. She remembered this feeling. She’d felt it in those early days and months when she and John had courted. She nibbled on her lower lip. “Why not?” she dared.
He hesitated, then shrugged. “Because I’m already with her.”
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
—Matthew 6:14
I hope Joshua and Phoebe’s story touched your heart the way it touched mine. Their story reminds me that, as humans, we all make mistakes and that we all can be forgiven and must forgive. In this world we live in today, this is a message of hope for me.
