Publisher's summary

Her fingertips brushed against something else in the box of doilies. She lifted a bundle of letters, neatly tied with a thin red ribbon....

Ivy Yoder hasn't heard from John King in over a year. She knows it's time to let go of the idea that they will one day marry, but she's humiliated to be one of the oldest single women in her Amish community of Birch Creek. When quirky Cevilla Schlabach asks her to help clean out an attic, Ivy is grateful for the distraction.

Noah Schlabach isn't from Birch Creek or even Ohio. His job as an auctioneer takes him around the country and away from a typical Amish life, but he still remains devoted to his family. So when his aging aunt asks him to help clean out her attic, he agrees. Plus, who knows what curious items he might find up there?

As Noah and Ivy work side by side, they come across a different kind of treasure: a packet of letters written during the Korean War. Soon they are swept up in the story of two young people falling in love - even as they remain determined not to fall in love themselves.

Words from the Heart is a moving story of lost love letters, fragile fears, and the beauty of taking another step forward.

Amish letters

Good series enjoyed them very much. Narrator was not my favorite at first, but she grew on me as did the characters in the series.

An Intricate Love Story Not to be Missed!

Words from the Heart

Kathleen Fuller scores a perfect ten with words From the Heart. The book holds not just one love story but two. You’ll laugh and you’ll cry...and you’ll cheer for a growing love. The performance is near perfect. Listen closely and don’t miss a word of this sweet and unique Amish story.

This was a beautiful story that will touch across generations. Read it.

I would recommend this story to readers young and old especially those who do not know where their life is headed. I really enjoyed reading the story. It was really nice to go back in time and realize that Cyvilla,matchmaker herself, two has a story. It was really neat to hear her story. I wanted to weep seeing what all her former boyfriend endured and how heartbroken he must’ve been at the end of the Korean War. My favorite part was at the end when she received his letter of forgiveness and grace. I really like the fact that she passed the letters on to a younger generation and how the younger generation carried on the tradition of love letters to one another and putting them in a keepsake box. That was so precious.

Narration was horrible

The weird pauses and phrasing made the story difficult to enjoy. It was quite irritating.
