Ruth defies authority to hold on to her family farm. Full of faith, hope, and romance, this new series takes you into the Heart of Amish country. Ruth Helmuth has never been rude in her life; trust her to choose the bishop of her Amish community for her first time! Ruth has worked hard to keep body and soul together since her husband, Levi's, death. She tends her herd of goats, making her living from the milk and fiber she gets from them, all while running a farm and household by herself--and very competently, thank you! How could she imagine the bishop suggesting she should give it all up to another family, who will "make better use of the space"? Enter widower Jonas Hershberger, owner of a pair of adorable dimples and father of a charming 4-year-old daughter. Jonas is in need of a larger place to house his growing business. Ruth's big red barn may be just the ticket. Little Abigail is in need of a new mother. Ruth might be just the ticket there, too! Can two independent souls learn to work together for their mutual good? And will they be willing to explore what grows between them? Or will Ruth's fear over her "big secret" and Jonas's caution about allowing someone new to get close to his young daughter, kill their love before it has a chance to grow? Luckily for both of them, God's plan involves the stubborn pair getting a little help in the form of a wise, elderly friend; a quirky orange kitten; and a smart little girl who takes one look at Ruth and decides she would make her the perfect new mother!
Meet Barbara Schwartz who struggles to find what brings her artistic joy and purpose amidst traditional expectations of her Amish community.
"As they took turns pushing each other on the swing that hung from a large tree, the mature--for a five-year-old--Jacob Lantz asked Trini Sutter to marry him. The nine-year-old thoughtfully responded that she'd consider his proposal when they were older. Nearly two decades later, the Amish farmer returns to the beautiful countryside of Arthur, Illinois, to take the independent owner of The Quilt Room up on her promise. Quiet, handsome Jacob is truly in love with the spirited list maker, and Trini finds herself falling in love with Jacob, but the youngest of eleven has big plans of her own. Jacob's long-held aspirations are put to the test when he learns that Trini has been holding a secret. He prays for a turnaround of events; however, when Trini moves away from her tight-knit community, he begins to realize that his dream of them being Mr. and Mrs. most likely won't happen. Will Trini forfeit her own well-laid plan for the man of her dreams?"--Page 4 of cover.

It's only one summer and then she will be back in Kentucky where she belongs. Melvin Bontrager's world stopped six years ago when his parents died.

When spring delivers a newcomer who is immune to his salty moods, Melvin does something he has never done before, accepts help. What blooms is the last thing Barbara ever expected, and everything Melvin could ever want"--
