The Pinecraft Seasons series takes Amish fiction to an unusual setting: Sarasota, Florida. Pinecraft Refuge (2023) and The Widow’s Unexpected Suitor (2024) are both set in the real Pinecraft community, where Amish and Mennonite families have gathered for decades.
The Florida location gives these books a different feel from the typical Amish romance set in rural Pennsylvania. Worth uses the warm climate and the vacation-community atmosphere to create stories about new beginnings in an unfamiliar but welcoming place.
