The Heart's Return: Amish Romance

by Adina Senft

Overview

His first choice ... her second chance.

Eight years ago, Anna Esch's parents discouraged Neil Wengerd's courtship. The family had just had a major blow, and Anna's leaving would have led to grief and suffering. But obeying her mother's wishes, Anna said not a word, only refused Neil in terms that wounded him past bearing. Hurt and angry, he left Whinburg Township ... and took Anna's heart with him.

Now Neil is back for a wedding and staying with his sister and brother-in-law, who have rented the farm from Anna's father. The whole district is buzzing. Not about Anna and Neil—everyone's forgotten they ever courted. But about Neil and Malinda Kanagy, who is everything Anna isn't.

Can Anna stand by and watch his family make the perfect match for the man she's never been able to forget? Or will she realize in time that Christmas is the season for God's gifts and second chances?

This novella was first published in 2020 in the USA Today bestselling collection, Amish Christmas Miracles.

About the Author

USA Today bestselling author Adina Senft grew up in a plain house church, where she was often asked by outsiders if she was Amish (the answer was no). She holds a PhD in Creative Writing from Lancaster University in the UK, and was the winner of RWA's RITA Award for Best Inspirational Novel in 2005, a finalist for that award in 2006, and was a Christy Award finalist in 2009. She appeared in the 2016 documentary film Love Between the Covers, is a popular speaker and convention panelist, and has been a guest on many podcasts, including Worldshapers and Realm of Books. She writes steampunk and cozy mystery as Shelley Adina; and as Charlotte Henry, writes classic Regency romance. When she’s not writing, Adina is usually quilting, sewing historical costumes, or enjoying the garden with her flock of rescued chickens.
