For the Amish of Pontotoc, Mississippi, faith can open minds--and
hearts--to create surprising bonds for a lifetime . . .
Independent-minded Leah Gingerich has always been outspoken. And even
though she is now a progressive Mennonite, she's rediscovering the joys
of family traditions back in her Amish hometown. Yet she can't help but
clash with her handsome new Amish neighbor, Jamie Stoltzfus. He's too
hard-headed and old-line to see that his traumatized young nephew,
Peter, needs faith and help--or that a woman who stands up to him may be
what he needs to heal . . .
After a devastating tragedy, Jamie moved to Pontotoc with his nephew for
a fresh start. Holding fast to his beliefs is the only way he feels he
can aid Peter--and himself. But somehow, Leah's freethinking ways and
feisty challenges are sparking a happiness he's never felt before. Soon,
Jamie can't imagine his life without her. But are their differences
ultimately too great to overcome--or can love bridge their way to a
future together?
