In this third installment of Amy
Clipston’s Amish Marketplace series, an acquaintance grows into love
over a few well-timed cups of coffee.
Alongside her
cousins who have booths of their own, Bethany Gingerich runs a busy and
successful coffee and donut stand at the Amish market. Since she has
café-style tables and chairs, her regular customers enjoy purchasing a
morning treat so they can sit and talk to their friends.
Micah
Zook and his grandfather, Enos, visit Bethany every Saturday morning to
purchase coffee and donuts before going to work at Enos’s custom outdoor
furniture shop. Bethany enjoys talking to Micah and Enos, and she’s
always thought Micah was handsome—but she doesn’t think her crush will
ever result in anything more.
When Micah and his grandfather don’t
come to see her one Saturday morning, Bethany begins to worry. And when
she learns that tragedy has struck, she wonders how to help Micah in
his time of need. Turns out he needs a friend now more than ever, and
Bethany may be just the kind of friend that God has provided for him.
