The Amish residents of Willow Ridge share their talents at the Simple Gifts crafts shopโand share the blessings of faith, hard work, and love with their communityโeven when family secrets bring unexpected challengesโฆ
Making rugs for Simple Gifts has taught Loretta Riehl that an unassuming pattern can reveal surprising depth. People, too, have a way of defying first impressions. Drew Detweiler came to Willow Ridge under a cloud, but the handsome craftsman has gained the communityโs respect for his upholstery skills and commitment to making amends for his mistakes. As her new brother-in-lawโs twin, heโs joining the family for dinners and Sunday visits at the Riehl house, and Loretta canโt deny enjoying his attentions.
If only her dat were willing to let a little joy into his life. Cornelius Riehl grows more stern with each passing day, and Drew suspects thereโs more to his moods than missing Lorettaโs late mamm. Hoping to fulfill Lorettaโs wish to live in a peaceful, happy home again, Drew sets out to learn the truth. Itโs a journey that will bring to light painful realitiesโbut also the chance to forge a new, honest, and loving future togetherโฆ
