Product Description

Is it good for two people-one plain, the other fancy-to fall in love? Laura Meade loves her modern life, yet she fascinated by the Amish culture in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where she is studying interior design. Upon their first meeting, she is immediately attracted to Eli Yoder, one of the Plain People, but Laura has no real concept about faith, God's love, and forgiveness of sins. Eli is also enamored with Laura, but to marry outside his faith would be forbidden. What then is the hope for love?

5.0 out of 5 stars Plain Meets Fancy, February 21, 2007
Laura Meade is attending a scool for interior design in Lancaster County and hopes to pick up some decorating tips from the Amish who live there. She goes to a market and meets Eli Yoder, resulting in an instant attraction between them. Although Darla Shelby, who lives in the same dorm with Laura, and is familiar with the Amish and their lifestyle, warns her against becoming involved with Eli, Laura can't seem to avoid him. She disregards Darla's warning that plain and fancy don't mix. After all, there aren't any problems too big for love to solve.

Neither his parents nor hers are happy about the growing friendship, and even Laura and Eli have reservations. Is the gulf between his world and hers too deep to cross? This is a compassionate story about a man and a woman caught between two cultures. Another good book from Wanda Brunstetter

I liked this book.It shows the conflict of opposing cultures but also the way to work things out.It was good. Nadia Rehmani author of Sharper Than A Two Edged Sword-my own true story that is about opposing cultures. Read mine

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!, June 24, 2007
All of Wanda Brunstetter books are wonderful. This book was fun to read because the main character was not Amish but fell in love with an Amish man. It is about her converting to the Amish ways. It is informative and yet tells a story you can't put down.
