In 1737, Anna Konig and her fellow church members stagger
off a small wooden ship after ten weeks at sea, eager to
start a new life in the vibrant but raw Pennsylvania
frontier. On the docks of Port Philadelphia waits bishop
Jacob Bauer, founder of the settlement and father to ship
carpenter Bairn. It's a time of new beginnings for the
reunited Bauer family, and for Anna and Bairn's shipboard
romance to blossom.
But this perfect moment cannot last. As Bairn grasps the
reality of what it means to be Amish in the New
World--isolated, rigid with expectations, under the thumb of
his domineering father--his enthusiasm evaporates. When a
sea captain offers the chance to cross the ocean one more
time, Bairn grabs it. Just one more crossing, he promises
Anna. But will she wait for him?
When Henrik Newman joins the church just as it makes its way
to the frontier, Anna is torn. He seems to be everything
Bairn is not--bold, devoted, and delighted to vie for her
heart. And the most dramatic difference? He is here; Bairn
is not.
Far from the frontier, an unexpected turn of events weaves
together the lives of Bairn, Anna, and Henrik. When a secret
is revealed, which true love will emerge?
