When she puts the business up for sale and gets an offer from an English buyer as well as from one in the church, she unwittingly causes a furor in the Amish community. On top of that, another Amish man, Eli Fischer, wants more than just the shop—he’s offering Amelia a chance to love again.

But how can she allow Eli to court her when she can’t promise him a future?
