About this listen
When five maidels join forces to turn an abandoned barn into an Amish marketplace, the unmarried women have community in mind. But their fledgling enterprise promises to reap surprising rewards for each in turn, including the gift of unexpected love....
For Regina Miller, the new Morning Star Marketplace is a chance to share her secret work with the world - without revealing herself. Old Order Amish forbid the creation of art without purpose, but without a husband, Regina has been free to explore the joy of painting in her attic. Yet when Gabe Flaud's curiosity leads him to speculate that Regina herself is the painter, the full weight of their community's judgement falls on her shoulders.
When Gabe stands up to defend Regina, questioning the Order's restrictions, he reveals his own guilty secret and is shunned along with her. Forced to turn to each other for companionship, the young couple must learn to balance their own needs with their deep faith...and a love that will show them all things are possible.

For Leah Otto, marrying Jude Shetler is a long-held dream come true. As a young girl, she was captivated by his good looks and talent as an auctioneer. When Jude, now a widower with three children, begins to court her, Leah doesn't hesitate. Other men may not appreciate her tomboy ways, but Jude values Leah's practical nature, and both enter the marriage with joy and optimism. Three months later, Leah feels as if her world is coming down around her. Her twin teenage step-daughters are pushing boundaries, and Leah, more at ease in a barn tending her goats and chickens than in a kitchen, struggles with her housekeeping duties.

When her wayward sister abandons her baby, it throws all those plans for a fresh start asunder. Esther had accepted her status as an old maid - but a mother? And a single one, at that? Not that she hasn't noticed Levi Kiem, the eligible young man who's making repairs in her house. Yet he surely has no interest in Esther as anything other than a friend....

great book!
Single Amish women running a business? Building it from the ground up? A different view of how Amish women could contribute to their community. As the women jumped the hurdles that were in their way, and with the support of their Bishop, we watch these women grow.
To tell you more would tell you how the book ends, so I don't want to do that. Just sit back and listen as the plot unfolds.

Stick with it It's a great story.
a little struggle to continue in the beginning. But I came back to it and loved the characters that developed. I did have a problem with a money issue in the end. It made it seem like the Amish people were taken advantage of because a deal couldn't have been struck without the owners' agreement. I'm trying not to give away what happens in the story.

Very interesting story with lots of relationships. Liked the reference to Willow Creek and the neighbors who moved to Morning Star from there. The Bishop is a great compassionate man… the rest of the leaders… meh!
