Amish Hidden Intentions #1
Amish Unknown Enemy
Ester Smith has just buried her husband of ten years, John, and decides to go back to the small Amish community she once called home. Vowing to live a Godly, traditional life, she is ready to give up the modern life she once enjoyed in order to recapture her long-lost family. However, she is devastated when the welcome is less than warm, and grieved to learn that her husband’s death was not an accident. In addition, the police seem to think she had something to do with the murder.
She must clear her name and protect her family, including the new life she has discovered growing within her—her last tangible link with her sweet John. She meets new friends and old along the way, but also invites the attention of the very people who murdered her late husband. Her only protection is a handsome man from her distant childhood, and she’s afraid that her newfound feelings toward him will keep her from ever being safe.
“I can’t love you, Hans. I’m a broken woman with a lot of baggage. I would only be a burden to you. You deserve so much more than what I could offer you.” Her heart broke with every word she had just spoken, until all that was left was a shell of a heart. She knew it was necessary, however. She had to make a clean break. She would not let anyone get hurt because of her…
Hans Graber will stop at nothing to protect the woman he loves, his link to a bright future instead of a continuation of his slide into depression. When he learns of the plot to kill her if she doesn’t return something taken by her dead husband, he stands by her side, risking excommunication from Faith’s Creek if the elders find out how close they’ve become now. He’s willing to give it all, including his life, in order to protect beautiful Ester, but must rely upon his faith in God when all seems lost.
Together Hans and Ester must discover the reason behind John’s murder and stop those responsible, but in order to do that they must unravel the mysterious last two years of John’s life. Hans is new to the world of the Englischers, but he must adapt quickly, or he will become the gang’s next victim. If that happens, he knows that Ester and her unborn child will also be killed, and that’s a risk he cannot take.
Will Ester allow her heart to love again and help her create a lasting relationship with the man helping to find her husband’s killers?
Can Hans protect Ester and her baby from the people who seek their lives…and will he learn who they can trust before it’s too late?
