An Angel By Her Side

Katie has lived through tragedy and heartache. But with the angel Elias by her side, the best years of her life are just ahead.

When Katie Bender’s fiance died in a tragic accident, so did her hope of finding love. Though heartbroken, Katie is also practical. In the years since the accident she has discovered her gift for teaching. But when a tornado destroys her small Amish settlement, including the schoolhouse, Katie doesn’t know how she will provide for herself.

Seth Stutzman arrived in Hope Falls days before the storm. And when he helps usher Katie and the children to safety, sparks fly. But Seth is only in town to help his brother, Amos, get back on his feet following the death of his wife. He can’t afford to have feelings for Katie.

Rebuilding the community is a huge task, and soon, Katie and Seth are working side by side. As they privately wrestle with their feelings for each other, another silent–and ultimate–battle for their hearts rages unseen.

Sworn to protect what God has ordained, the mighty angel Elias appears to them as a mysterious visitor. And with his guidance, Katie and Seth find the courage to take the first small steps toward the life, and love, they were destined for.

Author spotlight

I spent many school hours daydreaming, mostly about horses. Coaxed by my teacher to submit a short story to the Young Authors Writing Contest, I wrote, A Dream to Remember, about a girl who daydreamed about wild horses. That contest opened my eyes to daydream with a purpose. After that, my endless imagination was limited only by how fast I could write, and sometimes I stayed up late at night writing by flashlight to finish a story.

Readers say

I enjoyed the first book in the series, and liked this one as well. I liked the paranormal element and really liked Seth and Katie. I could identify with Seth’s dyslexia because my late husband had the same kind of troubles. I liked when Seth tried to get help with it, along with Thomas. Really liked the depth of these two characters, and the writing style.

First book I have read from this author. It was not the usual Amish romance; the angels brought a very different element into the story. Even the characters’ dilemmas were out of the ordinary. I often find grammar, editing or even spelling errors in books, but didn’t find any in this book. This was a very enjoyable book to read, and I will look for more from this author.
