Finding a husband is serious business. And serious business requires serious planning. Charity Raber is one of many single women who came to Birch Creek, Ohio, with one goal in mind: secure a husband from among the desperate bachelors a newspaper advertisement claimed inhabited the town. Even though that claim proved to be nothing more than a cruel prank, Charity is still hopeful that her happy ending might be within reach when she’s set up on a date with Jesse Bontrager. That is until Jesse not-so-gently shares that he has no interest in a relationship with anyone—and especially not with her. One year later, Charity is working as a caretaker for a kind, elderly English woman in the nearby town of Marigold. She’s also working hard on a brand-new courtship plan. A plan that absolutely does not involve Jesse Bontrager. But when he moves next door and is made aware of her scheming, Charity vows to prove that her plan is foolproof. Meanwhile, Jesse is sure she’ll make a fool of herself. And for some reason he’s not willing to let that happen. This stubborn bachelor and determined bachelorette will soon learn that their plans rarely work out as expected—but God’s plans always will. Sweet Amish romance The first book in the Amish of Marigold series Book length: 87,000 words Includes discussion questions for book clubs

Damien Northcutt is a gambler, a rake, a bastard, and… bored. Madeline Barnes is a botanist, a lady, an innocent, and… curious. When Damien accidentally plays knight-errant and rescues Madeline from the clutches of her scheming relatives, he discovers she might be the key to getting what he’s always wanted—revenge. Even though Damien has warned her repeatedly he is no gentleman, Madeline is sure deep down underneath his rakish demeanor he is a hero. Why else would he secret her out of a ball to safety? Damien’s plan includes seduction but not marriage. What he doesn’t expect is being seduced himself by Madeline’s smiles and laughter and passion. But she is meant for Damien’s half brother, and enacting his revenge means ruining the match… and breaking her heart.

The period from her first London assembly to her wedding day was the narrow span of autonomy for a middle-class Englishwoman in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. For many women, as Katherine Sobba Green shows, the new ideal of companionate marriage involved such thoroughgoing revisions in self-perception that a new literary form was needed to represent their altered roles. That the choice among suitors ideally depended on love and should not be decided on any other grounds was a principal theme among a group of heroine-centered novels published between 1740 and 1820. During these decades, some two dozen writers, most of them women, published such courtship novels. Specifically aiming them at young women readers, these novelists took as their common purpose the disruption of established ideas about how dutiful daughters and prudent young women should comport themselves during courtship. Reading a wide range of primary texts, Green argues that the courtship novel was a feminized genre—written about, by, and for women. She challenges contemporary readers to appreciate the subtleties of early feminism in novels by Eliza Haywood, Mary Collyer, Charlotte Lennox, Samuel Richardson, Frances Brooke, Fanny Burney, Mary Wollstonecraft, Jane West, Mary Brunton, Maria Edgeworth, and Jane Austen—to recognize that these courtship novelists held in common a desire to reimagine the subject positions through which women understood themselves.

"Uncle, your chin is so ugly ~" Uncle! Shen Mo Yuan was about to explode: Am I that old? Five years had passed just for her sake, but when she came back full of confidence, the little girl had completely forgotten about her. When he saw the little girl bravely beating up her boyfriend and her so-called best friend, Shen Mo Yuan was enchanted with her: she had not seen her for five years, but she had grown up. When she was down and out, Shen Mo Yuan had given her a big chest as a shield to counterattack the conceited man and woman beautifully. He thought that he could start a romantic confession, but Xu Wen waved him off, "Goodbye, Uncle!" Goodbye? Shen Mo Yuan's lips rose slightly, his thumb gently pressed the ring on his left hand: Since I'm back, then I won't see you again! This uncle is really annoying! Xu Wen did not understand why Shen Mo Yuan, who was neither family nor friends with him, would help him vent his anger: 'As long as I, a trash of a man, ignore her, why bother so much?' If not for the shameless big bad wolf squatting behind him, Xu Wen would never have agreed to Shen Mo Yuan's marriage. However, after getting married, she found out one thing: her uncle was a tiger, and he was just waiting for the sheep to enter the tiger's den! Ah ah ah, who will save her and chase away this hateful tiger? Pursing his lips into a smile, Shen Mo Yuan sneakily whispered into Xu Wen's ear, "Little fat sheep, you can't get away anymore!"

A headstrong young businesswoman. An unlucky-in-love bachelor. And the chaperoning assignment that keeps pushing them together. For someone so strong-willed and certain, Ella Yoder has never been more unsure of her life. It's been a year since she convinced her father to move with her and her younger sister Junia to Marigold, Ohio, to open E and J Grocery. Ella's got a keen eye for running a business and has big dreams to expand. But her plans are stalled because Junia refuses to lift a finger at the store--or listen to her about anything. Nelson Bontranger knows one thing for sure: creating his own artisan deli meats is his passion. Well, maybe one other thing: he's sworn off women forever. After two bouts of heartbreak, he's not willing to open up himself to a third. When he eyes his own butcher shop next to E and J Grocery in Marigold, he's surprised to learn that Ella has had her eye on the property for some time. He doesn't trust this stubborn, pushy young woman--and for her, the feeling is mutual. Against their wishes, Ella and Nelson's paths continue to cross when Nelson's nephew Malachi falls head over heels for Junia. Nelson and Ella are brought together to keep the lovebirds in check, but somewhere along the line, their frustration turns to something altogether more pleasant. But they will both need to come to terms with past pain before they can find their future happiness.
