The Bishop's Daughter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798232377007)

In the quiet Amish settlement of Hope Hollow, where tradition weaves through every aspect of life like the threads of a well-loved quilt, Martha Beiler carries the weight of her father's name with quiet dignity. As the eldest daughter of Bishop Elias Beiler, she knows her duty-to marry well, to uphold the Ordnung, and to set an example for the younger girls in the community. When her father arranges her courtship with Abram Stoltzfus, a prosperous farmer known for his unwavering devotion to the church, Martha accepts without complaint. But then she meets Daniel King, a brooding, gifted woodworker with a past shrouded in regret. Though Daniel has returned to the faith after a troubled rumspringa, the elders still watch him with wary eyes, and whispers follow him like shadows. Despite herself, Martha finds herself drawn to his quiet strength, his thoughtful questions about God's grace, and the way his hands carve beauty from rough-hewn wood.
As stolen moments by the creek and hushed conversations in the barn ignite a forbidden love, Martha is torn between the life she was born into and the longing of her heart. When Daniel's past resurfaces-threatening his place in Hope Hollow-Martha must make an impossible choice: obey the bishop and marry Abram, or risk losing everything-her family, her community, and her faith-for a love that could break her heart.
Brimming with rich Amish tradition, aching tenderness, and the struggle between duty and desire, The Bishop's Daughter is a spellbinding tale of love, sacrifice, and the unshakable bonds of faith
