The Amish Widower's Twins. Jo Ann Brown

      

      Two tiny twins and one lost love...

      The end of the Amish Spinster Club?

      Moving far away from her first love is the perfect remedy for Leanna Wagler’s broken heart—until he buys the neighboring farm. Now Leanna is in an unexpected position: temporary nanny to Gabriel Miller’s adorable twins. Though his kinder need her, Leanna spells trouble for the Amish widower...because a second chance with her means betraying a secret he’s honor-bound to protect.

      JO ANN BROWN has always loved stories with happily-ever-after endings. A former military officer, she is thrilled to have the chance to write stories about people falling in love. She is also a photographer and travels with her husband of more than thirty years to places where she can snap pictures. They have three children and live in Florida.

      “Danki. I don’t know what we would have done without—”

      “Neighbors help neighbors,” Leanna replied primly.

      He understood no thanks were expected, but he also didn’t like the idea of being indebted to the Waglers when he’d brought so much pain to Leanna and, through her, to her whole family.

      There were many things he wanted to say to her, but he had to content himself with, “I wanted you to know Michael and I really appreciate your help.”

      “I’ll pass your thanks on to Annie and Grossmammi Inez.”

      “Danki,” he said again, though he wanted to ask why she wasn’t accepting some of his gratitude for herself.

      The answer blared into his head when the door closed behind her, leaving him alone with the twins. To acknowledge his appreciation would risk re-creating an emotional connection between them, one he’d thought would last a lifetime. She wasn’t ready to take that chance again, and he shouldn’t be, either.

      So why had images of them walking together or riding in his courting buggy never stopped filling his mind during the day and his dreams every night?

      Dear Reader,

      Life’s twists keep us on our toes, don’t they? Leanna and Gabriel never expected they’d meet again. However, they came to realize you can’t escape your past by fleeing it and that they needed to trust God was leading them back to each other.

      In our lives, we may try to be like Leanna and Gabriel. We try to keep our pasts in our past and hold on to secret and not-so-secret hurts. It’s only when we face those fears that we can truly move forward.

      Thank you for sharing the stories of the Amish Spinster Club. These books have been a special treat for me because they’re in my hometown. I hope you’ve
