Synopsis
Faith, sacrifice, and forbidden love. Miriam Graber has always been the dutiful daughter. As the youngest of eight children, she stayed behind to care for her aging parents, believing that obedience is the highest calling of her faith. Love was never part of her plans-until widowed carpenter Daniel Yutzi quietly enters her life. Daniel is a devoted father, a respected craftsman, and a man still healing from heartbreaking loss. In Miriam, he finds hope again. In Daniel, Miriam glimpses a future she never believed she was allowed to want. When Daniel asks for her hand in marriage, Miriam's parents refuse. They insist her duty is to remain at their side forever. Now Miriam must choose between honoring her parents and following the quiet calling of her heart. Can love be part of Gott's plan for her life? Tender, faith-filled, and deeply moving, this sweet Amish romance is a story of sacrifice, devotion, and the courage to hope for a future built on love.
