Summary

Four years after losing her husband, Sarah Yoder has settled into the steady rhythm of Amish life in Lancaster County raising her son, tending her garden, and keeping her grief tucked away like folded fabric. When Eli Brenner, a quiet carpenter with steady hands and kind eyes, asks her to teach his younger sister how to quilt, she agrees without much thought. She doesn’t expect the request to stir something she thought was gone for good.
 
Eli carries his own unspoken losses, though he rarely names them. In Sarah, he sees the same ache he carries, softened by resilience. As quilting lessons turn into evenings of shared stories and gentle silences, the rooms feel warmer, and the distance between them shortens in small, steady ways.
 
Yet grief lingers, demanding choices neither can avoid. Sarah has to ask if she’s ready to step into new love, and Eli must learn to trust that tenderness can grow again, even after sorrow.
 
Can two hearts stitch together a future, or will the past keep unraveling the seams?
 
***
 
Like every tale in Threads of Grace, their journey shows how faith, family, and devotion weave second chances into the plainest of days.
 
In Lancaster County and beyond, love often begins in quiet ways a kind gesture, a shared task, a letter left behind. Threads of Grace is a 10-book standalone Amish romance series that honors the steady strength of faith, community, and devotion. Each story stands alone yet carries the heart of Plain life, where every choice balances family, belief, and matters of love.
 
These tales follow widows learning to rebuild, siblings finding forgiveness, forbidden courtships tested by tradition, and tender beginnings after loss. They’re not about perfect endings but redemptive ones stitched with patience, resilience, and the simple rhythms of everyday life.
 
Told through shifting points of view and seasons of both joy and hardship, the series offers clean, emotionally rich stories with genuine moral stakes. Whether through quilting circles, letters, or quiet talks on the porch, Threads of Grace shows how even the simplest lives can hold extraordinary love.

    When recent NYC-transplant Liz Brinkley and her husband are invited to an exclusive soiree by their neighbor, “lifestyle guru” Britta Harris-Che, Liz’s immediate thought is hell no. Britta is insufferable, and Liz is wary to leave her young children with a barely-teenage babysitter. And yet she RSVPs anyway, trying to extend an olive branch to her withdrawing husband, who seems desperate to get in with the cliquey elite. They’ve barely made it through their first round of champagne when a “red alert” comes through their phones: strange atmospheric masses, reported to look like “glimmering clouds,” have been spreading through major U.S. cities and killing anyone they touch. Authorities have one clear directive: Find shelter. Immediately. A collective panic seizes the dinner party; all the guests have children at home. In the mad dash to their cars, they see it: a shimmering net floating over the town. The street is littered with wrecked cars and dead bodies. Leaving now is not an option. Instead, the group launches into survival mode, grabbing supplies to take shelter in the hosts’ wine cellar. As tensions and suspicions among the party guests near a boiling point, Liz becomes increasingly willing to do whatever it takes to get back to her children, but she soon realizes there may be others in the cellar even more desperate than she is...

    The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance is M. R. James at his most disquieting: where festive streets darken quickly, dreams twist into warnings, and something grotesque walks just beyond the edge of understanding.
    Blending holiday cheer with a creeping sense of dread, this tale invites the listener to question what hides behind tradition, and what slips through the cracks of propriety.
    Laced with unease and subtle horror, it is not merely a ghost story—it is a disturbance in the fabric of the ordinary.
