In the third Pleasant Valley novel, the Amish community welcomes back
one of their daughters, but she hasn't returned alone...
After spending three years in the English world, Anna Beiler has come
back to Pleasant Valley with a baby girl, which will surely cause a stir
since Anna is unmarried. She is also hiding secrets: the baby is not
hers by birth, nor does she intend to stay. Rather, she desperately
needs sanctuary from the child's violent father...
It surprises Anna how quickly her Amish habits return to her, and how
satisfying it feels to reconnect with her friends and family. Even
Anna's childhood friend Samuel, whose slow, thoughtful manner used to
frustrate her, becomes a fond and reassuring companion.
But Anna hasn't fully faced the consequences of her irresponsible youth,
and now, her mere presence may endanger the family she holds dear. If
she wants to stay, she must seek forgiveness from the community whose
blessing she took for granted, and experience the true change of heart
required to make a new beginning.
