“Maybe Love Likes Crazy”
An Amish Love Story
It began by chance. After all, what are the odds that an “English” boy named Mark Lane is going to fall for an Amish girl named Katie Byler?
Who can predict matters of the heart, but a more perfect recipe for unrequited love there never was.
Mark and Katie were neighbors. From one farmhouse to the other was a mere seven tenths of a mile, but it may as well have been a million miles.
However, in 1966 lines blurred. That which had been set in stone for generations crumbled like the walls of Jericho. The effects of those walls crashing down would reverberate throughout the quiet community of Powder Mills.
The emotional fall belonged to Mark, but it was the physical fall that started it all. That was Katie’s doing.
