The Sledmaker's Daughter
Mary Lantz
Miriam Yoder has sawdust under her nails and a gift she’s not supposed to want.
While other women in her Amish community prepare for marriage, Miriam shapes sled runners in her father’s workshop—work she loves, work she’s good at, work everyone expects her to outgrow.
When Abram Zook commissions a Christmas sled for his two orphaned nephews, he expects careful craftsmanship. What he doesn’t expect is Miriam—blunt, capable, and unlike any woman he’s ever met.
As the sled takes shape, so does something between them. But the community has plans for Miriam that don’t include a workshop. The pressure Scripture quoted over quilting frames, a respectable match suggested, gentle warnings that a woman’s season for such work must end.
Caught between the life she’s expected to live and the one taking shape in her heart, Miriam must decide what she’s willing to lay down—and what she’s meant to carry forward.
He doesn’t ask her to be smaller.
He asks her to walk beside him.
A clean, contemporary Amish Christmas romance about faith, calling, and the courage to be seen, from Mary Lantz.
