might lead to a forever home…
Daryn Yutzy’s three orphaned nieces are now his responsibility—but the Amish bachelor is clueless when it comes to raising little girls, especially one who refuses to speak. When kindhearted food-trailer owner Carrie Detweiler coaxes smiles from them with french fries, he turns to her for assistance. Carrie agrees to help the grieving children—if Daryn helps out her troubled teenage cousin. Carrie has always been focused on business instead of marriage, and Daryn’s still reeling from a past betrayal. Yet working together stirs something neither expected. Can they open their hearts to a future they never planned for?

Book 2: Saving Her Amish Baby
Book 3: Their Amish Courtship Secret
Book 4: A Family for the Amish Orphans
Tragedy has left Daryn Yutzy, a single Amish man, as the guardian of his three young nieces. His love for the girls knows no bounds, and while he understands how deeply they are grieving, he has no idea where to begin when it comes to being the parent they need. When the girls immediately take to Carrie Detweiler, an Amish woman who runs a local food trailer, Daryn asks if there is any way she might be able to help them.
Carrie’s time is already stretched thin, but she agrees. However, her help will come with one condition. Her teenage cousin lives with her family and is constantly finding trouble. In exchange for helping the girls, she hopes Daryn can become a positive influence in the boy’s life. As they work together, trust slowly grows among everyone involved, and both Daryn and Carrie begin to discover that healing is possible.
This is a warm and emotional story that beautifully shows how faith, forgiveness, and compassion can lead to enduring love. I especially enjoyed the audiobook narration, which captured both the tenderness of the children’s healing journey and the sweet, slow-building romance between Daryn and Carrie. A Family for the Amish Orphans is the fourth book in the Amish of Lost River series, and I have enjoyed every installment. Fans of heartfelt Amish fiction will find this to be another uplifting and satisfying read.
