Anna loves the grandfather who raised her, but his strict adherence to
the Ordnung is scaring away any boy who might be interested in
her--except newcomer Jacob.
Under normal circumstances Anna Byler would have her choice of any of
the young men in her Amish community. But because of the strict rules
enforced by her grandfather, the bishop, the available suitors are
afraid to court her. Then handsome Jacob Hostetler moves to Paradise and
decides Anna is worth the challenge.
Anna sees that the bishop's legalism is dividing the community and even
risking the lives of its members--but her grandfather doesn't. When she
is forced to deception in order to pursue her dream of marriage and
family with Jacob, Anna feels her own faith slipping. If only she could
get her grandmother to help her stand up to the bishop. ButMammi is
keeping secrets of her own.
Anna wants to honor her grandparents, the two most important people in
her life, but her heart is divided by the rules that guide their little
Amish community and the growing love she has for Jacob. How can she be
true to both?
