Rebekah let her eyes meander up the lean,
black-clothed frame of her oldest companion. From his black shoes, up the extra-long
black britches, over the dark green shirt his mother had sewn, to his face. The
one that had grown so handsome over the years that it frequently appeared in
her thoughts without warning.
As an unmarried man, Joseph was still clean
shaven. His constant smile readily revealed the deep dimples that made her
insides turn to applesauce. “Rebekah?”
She stared into his eyes, which were as deep and blue
as the lake on a summer day. Joseph gazed back in such a way that she was
certain he could see all of her heart’s deepest secrets.
Here's some more about Rebekah's Quilt!

I loved the descriptions in this excerpt - I could really see the character. Interesting premise to the novel...terrific snippet!
ReplyDeleteThank you Veronica I am so glad you enjoyed this tidbit of Rebekah's Quilt!! Getting into the Amish mind was so much fun for this project ... which is now going to be a series! <3
DeletePoor Rebekah...she's got it bad : ) Loved the detail and description in these eight!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Millie! Yes she has it bad for Joseph ... but it's not until later in the book that we find out the depth of his feelings for her, if there are any at all .... :-)
DeleteIt's been several years since I visited Amish country in Pennsylvania (as a tourist), but your compelling words really brought the images to life as if it were just yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI love this description---especially the way it's filtered through her feelings! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting.
