Three years ago, when Annie Weaver was about seventeen, she could not seem to settle down. Her father sends her to live with an Englisch aunt for a little time with her Englischer cousins.
Annie is now an RN, has been living in the city and is homesick. When she hears that her father has been seriously injured with two broken legs, she decides to return home to help care for him. Soon after her arrival, Annie locks horns with Samuel Yoder, the Amish communitie's medicine man, who frowns upon her English education. When Samuel is called to assist a difficult birth, he requests Annie's presense. This simple action leads to a change in their relationship and their working together.
Chapman writes a believable tale of Amish tradition, human feelings and forgiveness.

Thanks for the review! I'm glad you enjoyed Annie's story. I'll begin writing the sequel next month. Until then, I hope you'll check out my Shipshewana series (Falling to Pieces and A Perfect Square).
