The Amish Seamstress's Mended Heart: 9

Elsie Troyer came to Paradise Valley with a worn valise, a guarded heart, and no wish to become anyone's burden. Skilled with needle and thread, she can mend torn seams, worn hems, and old cloth made fragile by time. But the hurt she carries from the district she left behind is not so easily repaired. In Paradise Valley, kindness waits at every kitchen table, yet Elsie has learned to wonder what every kindness will cost.When Noah Byler arrives from her old community carrying a letter and an apology long overdue, Elsie must decide whether his quiet steadiness is another claim on her future or the first love patient enough to let her choose. As old expectations follow her into her new home, Elsie discovers that a mended heart is not one that forgets every tear. It is one brave enough to trust the next stitch.
