A hidden hope chest. Five sealed letters. A legacy never meant to be found.
When Ruthie Zook uncovers a long-forgotten hope chest in her grandmother’s attic, she never expects it to hold more than old keepsakes. Instead, she finds letters written in another name, written to people she has never heard of—and carrying a truth that quietly unsettles everything she thought she knew about her Amish family.
As questions surface, Ruthie begins to sense that her grandmother’s life before the Plain community was far more complicated than anyone realized. Some secrets were buried for a reason and uncovering them may come at a cost Ruthie is unprepared to pay.
Just beyond the Amish settlement, a grieving widower struggles to hold his fractured family together, unaware that his own past may be entwined with Ruthie’s in ways neither could imagine. As New Year’s Day approaches, long-silent stories begin to stir, and the boundaries between Englisch and Amish grow increasingly fragile.
With the quiet support of a man who has loved her in silence for years—and the weight of her community’s expectations pressing in—Ruthie must decide whether the truth is meant to be revealed…or left where it has rested for generations.
Set in Indiana’s Amish country, Letters from Rebecca is a tender, faith-filled story of hidden heritage, forbidden connections, and the courage it takes to heal what time'''and silence—has broken. Sometimes the most powerful letters are the ones never meant to be opened.
Genre: Inspirational
