Book
A cousin's challenge / Wanda E. Brunstetter.
"After a serious van accident leaves Amish schoolteacher Jolene Yoder profoundly deaf, she leaves home to learn how to read lips and communicate with sign language. But two years later, a family with children who have been deaf since birth moves to Jolene's hometown, and she is asked to return as their teacher. Lonnie Hershberger has lost faith in God and in women ever since his girlfriend broke up with him when he lost his hearing during an explosion. When he starts falling in love with Jolene, love-shy Lonnie sees no future in becoming emotionally tied to Jolene. For how could he hope to protect her, if he can't even hear? Besides, Jake Beechy seems to spend all of his spare time with her. Ella Miller knows Jake's history with girls and fears he will brea her cousin Jolene's heart. What she doesn't know is that Jake is fighting his growing attraction to Ella. What drastic measures will God take to break the barriers between these young lovers--and teach them to hear the voice of love?" -- Page [4] cover.
