The Love of an Amish Carpenter
Hannah Schrock

Elmo Troyer never meant to become an outsider in his own community, but curiosity and youthful rebellion cost him everything. Shunned and alone, Elmo channels his heartache into the meticulous craftsmanship of his carpentry, creating beauty where his life feels broken.
Leah Lapp knows what it's like to feel trapped between duty and desire. Her parents have made it clear that someone like Elmo is trouble; that he is someone to avoid. Yet, when a chance encounter draws her into Elmo's quiet orbit, she sees past the scandal to the man compassionate, conflicted, and deeply misunderstood.
Drawn together by shared dreams and quiet rebellion, Elmo and Leah forge a friendship that blossoms into something far deeper. But will their fragile love survive the storm of judgment from a community determined to keep them apart? And can they find the courage to stand together against traditions that seek to tear them apart?
In this heartfelt Amish romance, two souls must decide if love is worth defying everything they've ever known.
