Janna Kauffman enjoys working as a personal shopper for the homebound in her Amish community. But when her wayward niece comes to live with her family, Janna finds herself spending less time shopping and more time explaining Meghan's erratic behavior to the local authorities. Her dealings with the law aren't entirely bad, though, as they bring her back into contact with a childhood crush.Police officer Troy Troyer shed his given name when he left the Amish eight years ago in an effort to escape his demons. He has no intentions of going back, either--not even for Janna Kauffman, the girl he's admired as long as he can remember. He can't believe his luck when she still welcomes a relationship with him, and he does his best to straddle both worlds, even as he questions the point in pursuing a love that cannot last.
Caught up in the exhilaration of their youthful dreams coming true, the couple makes a brash decision that jeopardizes the reputations of Janna and her father, the local bishop, and also threatens to destroy the fragile stability being built into Meghan's life. It will require the power of forgiveness to mend broken bonds and pave a path for future bliss.
