In
Ohio, with her dream dead, Amish Betsy Yoder struggles to keep her smile glued on her
face while serving food to guests at the wedding of widower dad Jacob Miller to
Englisher Natalie Bennett (see A Season Of Change). At the reception her mom asks her to stay
here, but Betsy cannot wait to return to the Pinecraft area of Sarasota,
Florida where she lives in the home of her Aenti Chelle and plans to open up a
bakery. Having fled Columbus when the
mob gunned down his employer Dish and Spoon restaurateur Mitch Gabryszeski, Jacob’s
third cousin pastry chef Thaddeus Zook arrives for the farmyard reception on a Harley
before heading to Florida.
In Sarasota, Betsy and Thad are attracted to each other. Whereas she is afraid to offer her heart so
soon after it was burned, he has doubts about belonging to the Amish world he
left almost a decade ago and besides most of his former community do not
welcome him back. As he falls in love
with Betsy, Thad must leave because what happened in Columbus could occur in
Pinecraft to his beloved and other innocent Amish and Mennonites.
Seasons in Pinecraft Book 2 focuses on Betsy who played
second fiddle to Natalie in the first drama.
Thad is an intriguing lead as a rebel while Betsy feeling fickle remains
somewhat confused with what love is. Although
the climax feels abrupt, the subgenre audience will relish this Amish romance.
