Doubting Thomas-Nurse Hal Among The Amish series- book 7

I've just put my latest Amish book on the market. After writing six books in the series, the Lapp children are growing up. In Doubting Thomas, Emma Lapp, the oldest of the children is planning her wedding to Adam Keim.

I really like the cover of this book and plan on using this cover creator from Create Space again with other Amish pictures. I'm blessed with a friend I made simply by selling her my books. She became a fan. I always email when I send books out just so the buyers know when to look for them. If the book is lost in the mail, I gladly email another book free of charge. This friend is the only one that has Amish friends that she actually visits with.

I mentioned that I try to find Amish scenes to take pictures of for my book covers, because I don't want to use Amish people since it is against their belief. Recently, my friend emailed me a treasure trove of Amish pictures. I am so excited to get them and be able to use them on the covers of future books. As with The Courting Buggy I may look at a picture and come up with a story instead of the other way around. Not only did I receive the great pictures but she sent me Amish Wedding recipes to use in the back of the book from her Amish friends. I am truly blessed.

I hope everyone enjoys this latest look into Nurse Hal's life.

Back of cover

Emma Lapp is marrying Adam Keim. Excitement prevails as Emma and her step-mother, Hallie, discuss details for the wedding. Soon Emma's excitement turns to dread. Nothing is going right. She planned on the former teacher to substitute teach for a month. She didn't plan on Ellen Miller being eight months pregnant with twins. Who else could Emma trust to teach her students? The Weber sisters are in a family upheaval over their cooking and garden methods. She wants them to bake her wedding cake. What if they get so upset with each other the cake doesn't get made? Emma would like to discuss her worries with Adam, but he hasn't been to see her for days. She is consumed by worries about the missing husband-to-be. What if he wants to back out of marrying her? She asks everyone what is Adam doing? The answer is always, he is very busy. When Emma found out Adam hired pretty, man magnet, Priscilla Tefertiller to clerk in his furniture store, she suspects Adam has developed a fondness for Priscilla. Is he going to wait until the last minute to tell Emma he changed his mind about marrying her? A talk with Bishop Bontrager didn't help. He sided with Adam, telling Emma she should trust the man she's going to marry with blind faith. She said she couldn't do that. The bishop told Emma if she couldn't trust Adam now, she might never trust him. Perhaps, they shouldn't get married. The bishop called Emma a Doubting Thomas. Will her worries get so bad she'll call off the wedding before the wedding is published at the worship service? If she does, she fears she will forever be a maidel who is know by others as a Doubting Thomas.
