Synopsis

She has run her father's mill alone since she was seventeen. The one man who understands what it needs lives on the other side of the bridge.

Miriam Lantz can hear when the stones are running badly, and she can smell a bad sack before she has it off her shoulder. What she cannot do is tell her father that the mill is failing. Jonas has refused to change anything about it for twenty years, and he has not much time left in which to be stubborn.

Then the offer comes down the lane from Hollow Run, carried by Eli Bontrager — the miller's son from the district where the Ordnung sits lighter. He did not think the offer up. He is only the one who had to bring it, and stand in the doorway while she read it.

Stonebridge keeps a stricter line than its neighbour, and every family in the district knows exactly how far a girl may walk with a young man from the other side of the bridge. Bishop Amos Yoder knows it better than anyone, and he takes no pleasure in carrying it.

Miriam has spent her whole life doing what was asked of her without being asked twice. The trouble is that she has begun to think the offer is a good one — and that thinking so makes her disloyal twice over: to her father, and to the district that raised her.

A closed-door Amish romance about duty, a failing mill, and a courtship two districts have to agree to. Faith, family and a gentle love story with a hard-won happy ending.

Book 1 of Stonebridge Amish. Each book follows a new couple and can be read on its own.
