Kayla Dienner has suffered her fair share of heartache, which is why she vows to protect her heart at all costs . . . until she meets Jamie Riehl.
Along with his volunteer work at the local fire department, running his Amish farm keeps Jamie Riehl busy. He barely has time to eat at the family table, never mind find someone to date. But when he meets Kayla Dienner, he is smitten.
Kayla tries hard to deny her attraction to Jamie. After all, she’s spent the last year discouraging her younger brother, Nathan, from becoming a firefighter. The death of their older brother in a fire a year ago is fresh in her mind—she can’t bear the idea of putting her heart on the line every time the sirens blare.
Then tragedy strikes, and Jamie wants to extinguish any flame between him and Kayla. Can Kayla set aside her own fears to save the love she was determined to deny?
The first book in the Amish Homestead series, A Place at Our Table invites us to a quiet community in Lancaster County where love burns brightly no matter the cost.

Summary
From: Rebecca Maney
Book Title: A Place at our Table
Book Author: Amy Clipston
What do you like about this book:
"He needed to go back to the firehouse and mind his own business."
Kayla Dienner has lost one brother in his role as a fire fighter, she is not about to lose another one, if she can help it. So why is her interest piqued by the handsome fireman who seems to be answering all of her little brother's questions, after pulling Nathan out of a burning barn?
Jamie Riehl can't help but notice the lovely young woman whose unwarranted animosity towards him seems a little out of place. After all, the barn could be rebuilt, the fire did not spread to the home and no one was serious injured. Perhaps they could begin their acquaintance under different circumstances.
When Kayla does agree to a friendship, Jamie could never have imagined the troubled path that would unfold before them; grief, broken promises, and misplaced priorities all combine to "A Place at our Table" a tutorial on the ability for "faith to make us well".
