There is no doubt about it … many people are simply fascinated by the Amish and their communities. Why would someone choose to live such a simple and spartan lifestyle?
The 1985 movie “Witness” starring Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won two, it was also nominated for six Golden Globe Awards. This mystery-thriller /romance popularized the lifestyle of the Amish … and over 20 years later still makes for a great “girl’s night” swoon fest.
Admittedly, the movie Witness was a tad bit racy … most Amish books wouldn’t be classified hot, racy or anywhere near that.
However you WILL find many “short” reads and surprisingly satisfying “clean” romances.
Here are some of the TOP Authors writing Amish Romances:
