I was excited to get back to this series after a long break although I couldn't remember anything from the first book. Courting Emily (A Wells Landing Romance) by Amy Lillard is the second book in the Wells Landing series. I was looking forward to getting back into some Amish fiction.
Return to Wells Landing, the close-knit Amish community in Oklahoma, where a hopeful young woman struggles to find true love while staying true to her faith. . .
Emily Ebersol is the bishop's daughter, and everyone--including Emily--assumes she'll marry a faithful Amish man and live out her days within the community. But her childhood sweetheart, Luke Lambright, fell in love with racing cars during his rumspringa and decided to leave Wells Landing. Emily prays for his return, but as the months go by, she begins spending time with another young man--a man who may not be as exciting as Luke, but perhaps he's exactly what she needs. . .
Elam Rhiel knows that Emily has always been in love with Luke--but he is certain he could be the loyal, steady husband Emily deserves. Then, just as Emily begins to fall for him, Luke returns and complicates her feelings. Now, they all must learn that the greatest love requires the greatest sacrifice. . .
Emily was dealing with the high expectations of being the Bishop's daughter while the man that she loved left the faith. She is waiting for him to return to Wells Landing and to her but he has started his career as a race car driver. She has put her life on hold waiting for the future with Luke but he has said that he won't return. Elam is worried about his dad and supporting his family after his dad's accident. He has the weight of everything on him and he is breaking under the pressure. Emily sees what the family needs and starts to help bring them together again. The family is healing and many things are changing but you have to pick up the book to find out what happens. I hope that you check out this book and others in this interesting series. The author and series are still a little new to me and I am enjoying getting to know these new characters and locations. I hope that you check them out too!!
