A Plain Leaving (The Sisters of Lancaster County #1)by Leslie Gould (Goodreads Author)Gould Offers a New Amish Series in Idyllic Lancaster County:

This was one of the best Amish stories I’ve read in a very long time!  It had a mystery involved, a romance, a family drama, and a clash with the bishop!  Loved the book.  Read it in one day. I couldn’t put the book down the author is a really great writer.  I’ve read a lot of Amish books, I’ve always found them fascinating, a lot of Amis live around the town my Grandmother lives in, and I always wondered how and why they did the things the way that they did.  After ready many Amish stories this one stood out for me, I really believe if you are interested in the Amish and their lives, if you  pick up this book you’ll  really enjoy reading it.  I did!I received the book as a gift from the author and Bethany House Publishers..  It was sent with no strings attached the author just hopes I will like it and tell my friends.  Of course, I will, I loved the book!
At age twenty, Jessica Bachman left her two beloved sisters and her Amish community after clashing with the new bishop about her role in the family and the future of their farm. She tried to convince Silas Kemp, who'd been courting her for two years, to join her, but when he said no, she fled anyway.
Three years later, she returns home for the first time since leaving Lancaster to attend her father's funeral. Her arrival back revives all sorts of emotions--yearnings and sorrows alike. Jessica knows things will never return to how they were. But in seeing Silas again, she can't help but wonder what might have been.
Struggling to decide where her next step should take her, she learns the story of a Revolutionary War-era ancestor that echoes her own choices. Will Jessica leave her family and community forever, or is there peace and healing and love yet to come?
