"Once you open the book, you won't put it down until you've reached the

The Teacher's Bride
They promised to keep each other's secrets . . . not realizing they
were about to make some of their own.
Martha Detweiler has a problem many Amish women her age would envy:
she's the only single woman in a community of young men, and they're all
competing for her favor. Overwhelmed by the unwanted attention, Martha
finds herself constantly fleeing from her would-be suitors, dismayed at
what her life has come to.
Birch Creek's resident matchmaker, Cevilla Schlabach, suggests a
solution: Martha and the bishop's son, Seth Yoder, should pretend they
are dating. What better way to keep the other young men away?
But Seth is the only man around not interested in Martha. He has a
secret hobby that keeps him away from social gatherings: woodcarving.
Having grown up in poverty, he's determined to keep his father's farm
successful, even if it means he has no time for dating. Then Delilah
Stoll, a new resident of Birch Creek, eyes Seth as the perfect man for
her granddaughter. Suddenly Cevilla's proposition doesn't seem all that
ludicrous. Can Seth and Martha convince their family and friends to
leave them alone?
The second book in bestselling author Kathleen Fuller's Amish Brides of
Birch Creek series, The Farmer's Bride celebrates the unexpected power
of love and the joy of discovering God's calling.
