The Amish Blacksmith (55 page)
A beautiful misfitâ¦
A handsome young filmmakerâ¦
A shocking family secret, hidden for 200 yearsâ¦
A loner and a daydreamer, Amish-raised Izzy Mueller doesn't fit in with her family or her community. About the only person who really gets Izzy is her best friend, Mennonite-raised Zed Bayer, but soon he'll be leaving for college, hundreds of miles away. Worse, he's completely unaware she's in love with him.
Izzy works as a caregiver, a job which suits her gentle ways and kind spirit. She's also a talented seamstress and often sits with her patients, quietly sewing, as they talk and reminisce about the past. Izzy has always enjoyed hearing what they have to sayâuntil the day one of them shares some unsavory news about her own ancestors.
When Izzy searches for the truth behind that lore, she begins to question her lifeâher creative longings, her relationships, and her heritage. Caught in the swirling dynamics of Zed's family once she becomes the caregiver for his grandmother, can Izzy learn from the past and from others' mistakes? Or must she step out in faith and forge a future all her own?
A moving account of one young woman's search for direction and acceptance as she takes her first brave steps on a path leading to a brand-new futureâand to love.
