Amish Widow's Tussle (Amish Widow's Challenge Series #3)

Nikki Wilson is twenty years old and determined to be the perfect Amish wife to her new husband Richard, but an accidental eavesdropping moment could literally ruin her life. How could Richard marry her just to spite his parents? When she discovers that she’s pregnant with his child, she hopes that it will be the glue that holds them together, even if he never truly loves her. However, one fateful moment while taking a bus ride changes everything and makes Nikki a very young widow. A handsome stranger on the same bus quickly takes charge of Nikki’s life, even helping her to escape when her in-laws suddenly kick her out of their home. She knows that she’s developing feelings for her handsome savior, but a mysterious note once again changes her life. Could Jacob’s ex-girlfriend be behind the threats against her life, or is someone else out to get her? Dear Ms. Wellsboro, I hope you get the message loud and clear after the small ‘incident’. Leave Jacob alone, pack your stuff and head back to where you have come from. Allenwood doesn’t have space for gold-digger women like you. Gaining Jacob’s sympathy with that innocent face and pretty smile will do you no good. Treat this warning lightly and I’ll make sure your next message is far more convincing. Jacob has built thick, tall walls around his heart to deal with the emotional aftershocks of his once-fiancée leaving him for his best friend. Although she continues to stalk and even harass him, he wants nothing to do with her and wants only to be left alone now that his sister is engaged to be married. Once he has the opportunity to leave, he is immediately drawn back to his sister’s home—with a pretty, pregnant widow to care for as well. He has saved her twice already, but she has saved him as well, although he doesn’t realize it yet. Before he has a chance to tell Nikki about his budding feelings of romance and happy ever after, Jacob must save her life twice more, and hope that the next time will be the last, because if she dies, he’ll die too. He must discover what’s going on to cause her so much heartbreak before it’s too late. When he finally learns of the threatening notes, he immediately knows the culprit, and knows that it’s time to take action. Will Nikki be given her second chance at love or will the next attempt on her life be the one that succeeds? Can Jacob save Nikki’s life yet again and finally have a chance to tell her that she is the beat to his heart?
