Lilah Mehl, an Amish widow, daughter's wish for a gazebo to be built in her mother's yard in time for her upcoming wedding was a surprise. Another surprise was when Noah Lanz, the good-looking, widowed carpenter showed up to build it. Even though Lilah's husband had died ten years ago, she still grieved for him. Noah's loss was more recent and his grief was very fresh. Even though they had grief in common and neither was sure they could ever find love again, an unmistakable attraction develops. However, there were obstacles. Could they overcome them?
THE WIDOW'S UNEXPECTED SUITOR, by Lenora Worth, is a story in which both Lilah and Noah find themselves doing much soul-searching. Lilah does not lack for family, but Noah has become a loner of sorts. Can their two very different lives come together?
Thoughtfully written and told with sensitivity, THE WIDOW'S UNEXPECTED SUITOR is a heartfelt story. Endearing and moving, the narrative provides a close look at faith, the power of relationships and community and the wonder of second chances. Highly recommended.
Amish widow Lilah Mehl wants to make sure her daughter has the wedding she’s always dreamed of—even if it means building a new gazebo. Hiring widowed carpenter Noah Lantz to work on the project is easy, but ignoring their attraction proves more challenging than expected. As the gazebo takes shape, so do new feelings…but is love more than they bargained for?
