Synopsis
She hides behind her scars... He sees the beauty she cannot... And the farm that brought her home may just heal them both... Iris Stoltzfus left Huckleberry Flats to build a life among flowers in New York—far from the pain of her past and the scar she believes makes her unlovable. But when her grandfather falls gravely ill, Iris is called home to a farm on the brink of ruin… and a grandmother ready to sell it to the wrong buyer. Determined to save the only place she’s ever truly belonged, Iris returns to the soil she once loved—where long days, hard work, and unexpected help from Samuel Weaver begin to restore more than just the land. Samuel is steady, kind… and carrying heartbreak of his own. Yet the more time they spend together, the more he sees the beauty Iris has always tried to hide. As the farm begins to bloom again, so does something between them. But with her old life calling her back to New York, Iris must choose—between the world she built… and the home, faith, and love she never thought could be hers. A heartfelt Amish romance filled with faith, healing, and second chances—perfect for readers who cherish gentle love stories rooted in family and hope.
