New York Times Best-Selling Author Cindy Woodsmall, Erin Woodsmall Release New Amish Novel Highlighting A Married Couple’s Path to Healing
“(The husband’s) emotionally charged road to redemption provides many profound moments of reflection from the characters on the ripple effects of sins and the struggle to forgive. This is the Woodsmalls’ best work yet.”
—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
New York Times best-selling author Cindy Woodsmall returns with her first full-length Amish novel since 2017, co-authored with her daughter-in-law Erin Woodsmall, THE ENGLISCH DAUGHTER (4/21/20, WaterBrook). After learning that their readers were eager for a marriage romance story, the Woodsmalls penned this inspirational novel that explores the realities of marital struggles and the power of forgiveness.
“I asked my nearly 50,000 readers on my Facebook page whether they would like for Erin and me to write a new romance story or a marriage romance story,” says Cindy Woodsmall. “Hands down, they chose a story about a struggling married couple.”
With four young children and a thriving horse farm, Roy and Jemima Graber have built what seems like the perfect Amish life. Having set aside her own dreams for the last decade, Jemima is looking forward to finally starting her own business with Roy’s sister, Abigail. But when she finds out her life savings for the dream is gone and her husband has been hiding a child with another woman, her entire world is shattered. With so much at stake, can she and Roy restore their relationship before their lives come crashing down?
Readers of Cindy Woodsmall’s 1.6 million books sold, as well as fans of Karen Kingsbury and Susan Meissner, will love diving into this story of complex characters who must navigate the consequences of betrayal and brokenness. With countless stories about romance before marriage, readers are sure to appreciate this unconventional romance that instead focuses on the testing of an established marriage and the power of extending forgiveness in seemingly impossible situations.
“Love covers a multitude of sins,” write the Woodsmalls. “Stress uncovers a multitude of sins. When it’s all said and done, despite that we fail each other, we also redeem each other.”
