Amy Grochowski’s deep appreciation for the Amish faith and way of life stems from six years of living and working with a Beachy Amish family, as well as her own Anabaptist roots. She maintains ties to both Amish and Mennonite friends who serve as readers for the authenticity of this work.

Her debut novel, Forever Home (Ambassador International), was a pre-published winner of Romance Writers of America’s Maggie Award and a semi-finalist in ACFW’s Genesis Contest. It’s the first book in her contemporary Amish romance series Amish Dreams on Prince Edward Island:

A Canadian Amish farmer. A Lancaster Amish businesswoman. A Prince Edward Island foster child.

Providence brings together a mismatched family, giving all three a second chance for love. Only love may never have had such a tough job.

In this interview, the author talks about the importance of the setting of her series, her heart for writing fiction with a message, and the cathartic power of stories.
