Willa's full story is now bundled together in one convenient volume just for you! Here is what you get: The AfflictionWilla Springer suffers from frequent migraines. Since her father won't consider Englisch medicine, and the district's healer can't help her, Willa's life becomes more and more confined. She hates it, wanting nothing more than to be "normal" and to live life fully, which would include having a beau and a promising future. Collin Wilson needs a quick escape. His father has dragged him into his illegal medical practices, and Collin wants out. A quiet Amish community would be the perfect place to disappear. He decides to impersonate an elderly Amish couple's long-lost grandson. It seems to work-if only he could shed his conscience. When he meets the beautiful yet fragile Willa, his guilt soars. He likes her-a lot. But how can he? He's not Amish, and he's running from the law. When Willa appears to return his affection, he realizes anew how little possibility they have for a future together. His only hope is to maintain his deception. But will his conscience allow it? The Sewing Job Against her mother's wishes, Willa Springer takes a sewing job with an Englisch producer. She's determined to have a more "normal" life and not let her severe headaches impede her activities. Collin guards his secret, digging himself in deeper and deeper. Not only are his lies increasing, but his affection for Willa and the Keims-his claimed grandparents-is increasing. Willa's new job throws her and Collin together. Their connection deepens and Collin knows he can't maintain his deception any longer. He can't trick the people he loves the most. But telling the truth will surely mean being thrown out of the tight Amish community he has come to cherish. Yet, he's determined to come clean. What kind of a person would he be otherwise? Is there any way Collin can fix this? Is there any way his new "family" will forgive him? And is there any way Willa can see past his lies to who he really is? Collin's Confession Collin has kept his secret long enough. When he reveals the truth of his identity, he is thrown out of Hollybrook-just as he feared. Back in Indianapolis, he finds his father in prison. Collin needs to tie up loose ends there before he can ever hope to return to Hollybrook, before he can ever hope to right all his wrongs. Willa struggles to come to grips with the fact that she has fallen in love with someone who would lie and deceive both her and those she loves most. Collin's confession has caused much pain, and Willa sees no way it can be righted. But Collin has promised her that he will fix it ... that he will return and court her properly. But as the days stretch on with no sign of Collin, she can't help but wonder whether he's gone back to his fancy life. Most Englisch can't make the leap to become Amish, and maybe Collin is just the same. Read all 3 of these heart-warming romances written in the tradition of Beverly Lewis in one convenient volume!
