An Amish Family Reunion
eBook available at your favorite eRetailer.
During a rumschpringe visit to Niagara Falls, Phoebe Miller meets Eli Riehl, a young man who charms her—and everyone else—with his exceptional storytelling ability. When Phoebe sketches scenes to illustrate one of his tales, Eli encourages her incredible talent, and together they embark on a lofty and unlikely business venture for two young Amish people—writing and illustrating a children’s book.
Eli’s kindness and appeal extend beyond his knack for words to reach inside Phoebe’s heart. But he is an only son with five sisters, and when his father suffers a heart attack, Eli gives up his writing to assume responsibility on the farm. Though willing to abandon his dream of becoming an author, he won’t give up his beloved Phoebe.
Can their love for a good story develop into something that lasts forever, or will Phoebe’s deep-seated fear of desertion stand in their way?

“Mary Ellis has really outdone herself on this book. It was absolutely fantastic; you will be into this book from the very first page. It was so much fun just getting caught up with the Miller Family. Even if you have not read the series you will be able to follow this book. You will fall in love with Phoebe and Eli. This is a must-read; I am sure you will enjoy it from the first to last page, and then you will not want it to end.”
—Lois Klobucher
“Mary Ellis is a gifted storyteller and her writing just gets better and better. I love the characters in this book. What I love best about them is how real they are. The humor in this story is spectacular. I found myself laughing with nearly every page turn. The author’s dry, witty sense of humor shines brilliantly through her characters. But, An Amish Family Reunion is not just about characters. The plot is also fascinating.”

“I just finished An Amish Family Reunion and I loved it. I realized that this is the last installment of the Miller family stories so I read it very slowly, like watching the last season of my favorite TV series, because I know that when it's over, it's over. If you haven't read the Miller series, you can still enjoy this one. You will want to take your time as well because you just have to savor every last moment with this awesomely blessed and caring family.”
