ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: Never an Amish BrideSeries: Honey Brook #1
Author: Ophelia London
Publisher: Entangled: Amara
Release Date: June 30, 2020
Genre: Contemporary Amish Romance
Welcome to charming Honey Brook, Pennsylvania, where bestselling author Ophelia London will bring you on a moving and unforgettable journey through faith, forgiveness, and ultimately love.
Everything changed for Esther Miller with the death of her beloved fiancé, Jacob. Even years later, she still struggles with her faith and purpose in the small, tight-knit Amish village of Honey Brook—especially now that her younger sister is getting married. All she wants is to trust in the Lord to help her find peace...but peace is the last thing she gets when Lucas, Jacob’s wayward older brother, returns to town.
Lucas Brenneman has been harboring a secret for years—the real reason he never returned from Rumspringa and the truth behind his brother Jacob’s death. Honey Brook still calls to him, but he knows his occupation as a physician’s assistant must take precedence. With sweet and beautiful Esther he finds a comfort he’s never known, and he feels like anything is possible...even forgiveness. But she was Jacob’s bride-to-be first. And if she knew the truth, would she ever truly open her heart to him?
USA Today bestselling author Ophelia London brings a sweet, heartfelt, and surprisingly funny take to the popular Amish romance cannon.

“You’re beautiful.”
Lucas’s words made her look at him. Tenderness filled his
light brown eyes. He tipped his head to the side as if examining her from a new
angle. Esther felt a silly, romantic flutter in her tummy as his gaze seemed to
slide over her.
“And you’re stubborn and kind,” he continued.
“Lucas,” she said, knowing her throat, cheeks, and ears were
probably bright red. “You’ve made me feel good about myself again, about other
people, and maybe about the whole world in general. I’m happier now, more at
peace, and I like myself better these days.”
Hearing his words spoken with such boldness should’ve made
Esther shy and embarrassed, but somehow, she felt more connected to the earth,
anchored to her beliefs in a celestial power, attached to the man sitting
across from her.
“And now,” Lucas continued, “I don’t feel nervous about
doing this.” Like it was nothing, he scooped up her hand, intertwining their
fingers When he gave a gentle squeeze, tiny pinpricks traveled up and down
Esther’s neck, his nearness making it harder to breathe quietly.
“Lucas,” she said around the lump in her throat, “you’re
so…well, you’re so very…”
Wonderful, she tried to say. And giving and patient and such
a good listener. And handsome. And when you look at me like you are right now,
I want to…
“You like me, too,” he said, smiling when she couldn’t
finish the sentence. “That’s all I need to know now.”
“Jah. I like you.” The understated words made her laugh.
He sighed, then lifted his other hand. Without needing
instructions, Esther reached out and took it, butterflies and bluebirds and
angels flying circles around her heart.
“We’re supposed to be having a picnic,” he said, pulling
back a corner of his mouth into a crooked grin.
“Chicken, cheese, and pickle sandwiches,” Esther replied,
wanting to freeze this moment forever. “And freshly baked sticky buns.”
