Plain Peace

Anna Byler has always been able to pick from the eligible young men of her Amish district, yet few of them dare to approach her. Her grandfather, who raised her, enforces the Ordnung so strictly that would-be suitors fear his disapproval. Jacob Hostetler, a newcomer to Paradise, does not share that fear and sets his sights on her.

Anna believes the bishop's rigid interpretation of the rules is tearing the community apart and endangering the people within it. Her grandfather sees things differently. When Anna resorts to deception to pursue a future with Jacob, her own faith begins to feel unsteady. She hopes her grandmother will support her in standing up to the bishop, but Mammi has secrets of her own.

Anna wants to honor the two people who matter most to her, yet her loyalty to their traditions pulls against her growing feelings for Jacob. The question is how she can stay true to both.
