Synopsis

Mary Ellis follows her captivating Widow's Hope with a new story from the heart of Holmes County, Ohio.

Fifteen-year-old Emma Miller finishes school, starts her own wool business, and is longing for someone to court. When the object of her affection is a handsome English sheep farmer with a fast truck and modern methods, her deacon father, Simon, has more than the farm alliance to worry about. Emma's aunt Hannah wants a baby, and her uncle Seth hopes to reap financial rewards with his harvest. But are these the dreams God has for this Amish family?

About this title

From the Author

"Did you ever date someone that your parents' didn't approve of? If so, maybe you'll sympathize with Emma who falls in love with another sheep farmer--only this one wears Levis and drives a fast truck. Her Uncle Seth has been blinded by an easy path to riches to solve the district's money woes--another common pitfall for us Englischers. Life may not be predictable for the Miller family, but with faith, all things are possible."
--Mary Ellis, author of Never Far from Home
