Go here: https://www.jenniferspredemann.com/ABOUT MY BOOKS...It seems like every series I've written has been unique:AMISH GIRLS SERIES: (co-authored with my daughters) is a fun series set in Pennsylvania and is geared for teens (although many of my older readers have said they thoroughly enjoyed it!) (8 books + 2 tie-ins)AMISH BY ACCIDENT TRILOGY: Amish by Accident was originally a stand-alone book (my first book released!) It was SO different (that was my crazy imagination kicking in), I was unsure how readers would respond (or if anyone would even read it, LOL). And then the reviews started coming in! As of today, the book has 700+ Amazon reviews with a 4.5 STAR average! PRAISE THE LORD!!! I ended up writing a sequel and a prequel, thus the trilogy. :) (3 books)AMISH SECRETS SERIES: Oh, boy! This series tackles some pretty intense topics that you likely won't read about in your mainstream Amish fiction books. The first book in this series, An Unforgivable Secret is currently FREE in ebook. This was another one that I was unsure how it would resound with readers. It currently has 1900+ Amazon ratings and reviews with a 4.5 STAR average! GOD IS GOOD! (7 books)AMISH FAIRY TALES: (originally "FAIRLY" TALES, on purpose, but not everybody "gets" my twist on words) Basically, loose retellings of Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, Amish-style (2 books, #3 on the backburner)KING FAMILY SAGA : the Bible stories of Isaac & Rebekah; Jacob, Rachel, & Leah; Joseph; Ruth; and David loosely told in an Amish context. (5 books so far)AMISH COUNTRY BRIDES: Sweet faith-filled romances set in Indiana (12 books)STAND-ALONE STORIES: Her Amish Identity (previously known as Love Impossible), An Unexpected Christmas Gift (Unlikely Singing loosely ties into this sweet love story)UNLIKELY SERIES: Unlikely Santa (An Amish Christmas Story), its sequel Unlikely Sweethearts, Unlikely Singing, and Unlikely Season - LOVED writing this series.AMISH COLLABORATIONS: Amish Christmas Miracles Collection (2020), More Amish Christmas Miracles (2021), Amish Spring Romance (2022)Coming 2023 (Lord willing!): AMISH COURTSHIP SERIESA Forbidden Amish CourtshipA Widower's Amish CourtshipTBA

      Authors’ Note

      It should be noted that the Amish people and their communities differ one from another. There are, in fact, no two Amish communities exactly alike. It is this premise on which this book is written. We have taken cautious steps to assure the authenticity of Amish practices and customs. Both Old Order Amish and New Order Amish are portrayed in this work of fiction and may be inconsistent with some Amish communities.

      We, as Englischers, can learn a lot from the Plain People and their simple way of life. Their hard work, close-knit family life, and concern for others are to be applauded. As the Lord wills, may this special culture continue to be respected and remain so for many centuries to come.

      Chapter 1 – Anticipation

      "A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance..." Proverbs 15:13a

      Ada Esh gingerly picked up her birthing supply bag, waved a quick farewell to her husband Daniel, then headed from the dawdi haus to the larger dwelling next door. Her granddaughter Chloe would possibly be observing her first birth today and Ada hoped she would eventually take over her midwifery duties in Paradise. Ada had recently passed her sixty-fifth birthday and she figured it was due time to train someone from the younger generation and pass on the art of catching babies. Since Chloe had shown interest, Ada knew she was the perfect candidate for the job. Her outgoing personality would be an excellent asset that would be helpful in putting anxious mothers at ease.

      "Hullo, Mary! Ada greeted her daughter-in-law. Is Chloe ready?"

      Mary dried her hands on a dish towel and offered Ada a hug. "Jah, she is thrilled. That boppli is all she’s been talking about lately. She should be down in a bit."

      Chloe quickly descended the stairs. "Grossmudder! She threw her arms around her grandmother for a quick embrace. This is going to be so exciting!"

      "Well, the two of us better get going before that boppli arrives without us. You know if that happens, Isaac Fisher will be beside himself not knowing what to do. We don’t want the new dat to worry," Ada warned.

      The buggy is all hitched up and ready to go! Peter Esh hollered from the back door.

      "Denki, Sohn." Ada and Chloe tromped down the back steps of the porch.

      <><><>

      Chloe grasped the sides of her apron with sweaty hands, emotions swirling in her mind. This was the most exciting time in her life. Today she would be assisting Mammi with her first birth, school was finally over and done with, she would be staying home and helping Mamm with the house and the kinner, and she would be attending her first Singing soon. Her transition from childhood to adulthood had finally begun and her expectations couldn’t be higher. She quietly smiled to herself as she and Ada rode along in their buggy. Cayenne, her beautiful auburn-colored quarter horse, seemingly took forever to arrive at the Fisher residence, not at all how he usually performed when Chloe raced him with Joanna Fisher’s Arabian stallion, Blueberry.

      Upon their arrival, Chloe hopped down from the buggy. As Isaac took Cayenne out to the pasture, she and Ada hurried into the house to see Rachel. Chloe was surprised when she noticed her sister Rachel preparing a casserole for the evening meal. Rachel smiled at the two ladies as they entered her home.

      "Wilkom!" Rachel’s cheeks glowed with joy.

      "How’s Mamm and the boppli doing?" Ada asked.

      "Ach, I thought he was ready to make his appearance, but it seems he or she has settled down now. I haven’t had one contraction since Isaac called you." Rachel sighed disappointedly.

      "Appears to be false labor. Happens all the time, so don’t feel bad. The boppli will come when he’s good and ready." Ada chuckled.

      Since you’re here anyway, how about a cup of peppermint tea? Rachel suggested.

      Ada and Chloe glanced at one another and both agreed. Might as well.

      "Hey, Dat. What’s Mother’s Day?" Jonathan Fisher asked as he and his father walked toward Beiler’s Hardware store.

      Gideon rubbed his beard, confusion darkened his face. Mother’s Day? Why do you ask?
