In this poignant, beautifully written novel, a
faithful young Amish widow is reunited with her wayward
first love . . .
As a bishop’s daughter and good Amish mother, widowed Sadie
Hochstetler teaches her young son that God blesses those who
try their best to please Him. But her brief marriage taught
her that life is infinitely more complicated than that.
Older, and serious, her late husband seemed a sensible
choice—especially compared to Elijah Fisher, the spirited
boy with whom she butted heads and hearts. Then Elijah
abruptly left for the Englisher world, taking Sadie’s
beloved brother along with him—a double betrayal she still
strives to forgive. Especially now that Elijah has returned
. . .
Elijah plans to stay in the Amish community only as long as
he’s needed, helping his family and working for Sadie’s
ailing father. The outside world has changed him, leading
him to question rules and restrictions that others take on
faith. Once, he’d been head over heels in love with the
bishop’s daughter—a girl he was judged unworthy of courting.
Nine years have changed so much between them. Yet something
remains—a spark that, for all their differences, might light
the way home again . . .
