Leslie Gould delights in this sweet and humorous Amish romance reminiscent of The Shop Around the Corner and You've Got Mail.

Lois Yoder has always found solace in the quiet life of Paradise, Pennsylvania, where she manages a gift shop that reflects her Amish community's simple values. Her tranquil world is upended when Moses Lantz, a former Amishman turned Mennonite and the man who broke her heart, buys the shop with ambitious plans to transform it into a tourist hub—a move that Lois fiercely opposes.

Seeking a distraction, Lois joins a bird watchers' circle letter under an alias. But unknown to her, Moses does the same at the urging of a friend. While their correspondence blossoms into a tender romance, the enmity between Lois and Moses in real life only intensifies. Can they overcome their animosity and embrace the love they've found through their letters, or will their stubborn hearts keep them apart forever?

"Leslie Gould's The Shop Down the Lane is a touching Amish romance of second chances. Lois Yoder, pressured to marry for convenience, finds her life upended by Moses Lantz—her new landlord and the man who once broke her heart. An anonymous connection through bird-watching letters leads to a tender, unexpected journey of healing and true love."—Suzanne Woods Fisher, bestselling author of A Season on the Wind and an avid birder
