From stunning handmade crafts to fresh-picked produce and mouthwatering baked goods, Lancaster, Pennsylvania's Green Valley Farmers Market offers sweet surprises every day—including the chance to make new friends, find community—and even discover a forever kind of happiness . . .
Cathy Zehr prides herself on her skilled donut-making—and on her plain speaking. After all, talking about others' failings is only telling the honest truth—and it might prevent others from making the same mistakes. But gossiping has made her an alt maidel—someone never courted to be a wife. And she's finally at a loss for more than words when she must care for her ailing brother's young sons. To find out what not to do, she turns to reserved woodworker Myron King, a bachelor who raised his orphaned niece and nephew. His advice proves invaluable—plus, Cathy discovers they have much in common. Yet she fears their growing closeness will never overcome her deep trauma—much less lead to love . . .
Myron is taken aback by Cathy's request—yet he's also intrigued. Perhaps confessing his parenting regrets will ease some of his guilt. Still, he's surprised when Cathy truly listens to him, even softening her blunt manner. Myron is even more surprised by his growing attraction to her—despite his fears about risking heartbreak again. But when their deepest secrets suddenly collide, can faith, forgiveness, and courage unite their longing hearts?
