Anna In Love is on sale for 99 cents. The discounted price ends on November 6^th!

Englisher Wyatt Winslow asks Anna King to go with him on his plane.  Will she risk displeasing her bishop father by doing something against their Ordnung?

Eighteen-year-old Anna King wants to experience new things before she decides to join her Amish church. Although she enjoys being a midwife, Anna talks with her new friend, Wyatt Winslow, about doing something different. She wonders if college might be a possibility for her to get a nursing degree. She might even return to working as a veterinarian assistant. The handsome Wyatt likes talking with Anna about her future. Although her bishop father wouldn’t like her spending time with Wyatt, her friend Maggie invited him to their weekly Tuesday lunches. 

 Wyatt stays with his Grandma Mattie for the summer because his grandfather died recently. He wants to be there for her and to help his Amish relatives with farm work. 

Wyatt was surprised and deeply hurt when his college girlfriend dumped him after their graduation. He can’t help being attracted to Anna. He asks her to go flying with him, but will she risk it? Her church district forbids flying. She hasn’t taken her kneeling vows, so what could be the problem? If she asks for permission, her father will definitely say no. Anna doesn’t like to be secretive, but she wants adventure in her life.

When his cousin, Clint Lambright, becomes interested in the beautiful Anna and takes her home after a youth get-together, Wyatt isn’t pleased. He doesn’t want the competition, especially since Clint is Amish.

Anna notices that Wyatt never complains about going without electricity, air conditioning, or television. Could he leave his world and join their Plain church so they could build a future together? Despite Clint’s interest, Anna wonders if God brought Wyatt to Fields Corner because he might be the one for her.

My daughter April picked up Amanda and me to walk through the neighborhood while the children went trick-or-treating. Camellia was the only grandchild missing. We enjoyed seeing the subdivision’s Halloween decorations. It was a perfect evening for Halloween! 

Blurb:

Her future with Caleb seems bright—until the startling truth about her birth changes everything.

Sophie Weaver has never quite fit the family portrait. Her coal-black hair, vivid blue eyes, and naturally darker skin set her apart from her Amish parents and sister, but she finds peace in tending herbs and vegetables. When a lively volleyball game brings Caleb Lapp into her life, he is drawn to her gentle spirit and her love of growing things, and soon invites her to Lapps Lemon Orchard, his family’s thriving fruit farm.

As Sophie’s friendship with Caleb begins to bloom, her parents reveal a life-changing secret: she was adopted. Her biological father was Cherokee, and he loved Ainsley Harrington, a senator’s daughter whose pregnancy threatened her father’s reelection campaign. After Sophie’s father dies in a motorcycle accident, Ainsley’s parents insist on a secret adoption. Heartbroken, young Ainsley is moved by the sound of an Amish woman crying in the hospital where they both gave birth and chooses her to raise her baby. Now Ainsley has returned with an urgent plea—she needs Sophie’s help to save her life.

Will Sophie undergo surgery to save the birth mother she has just found—and will Caleb stand by her choice?

My book, Love in Florida Amish Country, comes out on November 1, 2027. Each month will feature a book set in a different state. I chose Florida after my husband immediately suggested it when I asked which state to write about. Our daughter also lives in the Sunshine State, so I thought I could visit Sarasota to see where the Amish live. I picked November to allow more time to write. With so many distractions in the Craver family, writing can be challenging—but it’s a challenge I love!

Our daughters, Sara and Amanda, went to their annual event, The Great Banquet, on Friday evening! They had dinner, dancing, played games, and walked the red carpet. Sara zoomed out of the house to the car before I snapped a photo of her. She loves to go to dances! A photo of the T-shirt that says "There's a place for you at the table" is modeled by Amanda! Sara and Amanda both received that T-shirt after the dance.

My husband says people who read my books will live longer, so I must be doing something special for them! Wasn’t it sweet of him to share this article with me?

Do Great Readers live longer? by DR. BARBARA GOLDER

The information is announced with great enthusiasm: Readers live longer! For a culture self-obsessed with health and longevity, it’s good news indeed. Here is a magic bullet available to pretty much everyone, at no substantial cost apart from time and with few, if any, noticeable side effects when it comes to the measured outcome of length of days.

In a landmark study, Yale scientists found that readers outlived nonreaders by almost two years. It was a substantial study of over three thousand subjects, and well controlled for the obvious competing variables: age, socioeconomic status, depression, physical health, sex, and race. Moreover, the authors discovered a dose-response: The more one read, the greater the advantage, and books were better than periodicals or newspapers, presumably because their depth and complexity required more sustained attention and more analytical thinking.

There are at least one hundred good reasons to read, and dozens more lists collecting them. Reading those lists, one is struck by the self-interest of most of the reasons. Reading increases one’s knowledge. It reduces stress. It facilitates imagination. It stimulates critical thinking. It forges new neural pathways. It staves off dementia.

Saint Anthony of Padua tells us to search for God

in all things and in all things we will find him.

Sharing photos from my Author Library Event on Saturday. It was nice meeting my readers in person, and that made the day so special. Karen and I have been online friends for years, so it was especially nice to meet her in person. She's in the second photo. Sandra has read most of my books, and it was great meeting such a fan of my books! Then in the last photo is Vicki. She shared her amazing photography work with me. Thanks to my daughters, April and Christina, for coming and helping me! Afterwards, it was fun to go out to eat with my two lovely daughters. I have extra books to sell. Email me at dianecraver@gmail.com if interested in buying any!

The first eight people to arrive at my event will receive a free paperback of Maggie's May Song, a pen, and cool bookmarks!
