Publisher Description
A determined widow and a single father learn that love is about taking chances and turning over new leaves in the quaint Amish community of Promise Glen, from national bestselling author Marta Perry.
When widowed shop owner Dinah Hershberger is unceremoniously charged with safely escorting an infant to his uncle, she finds herself torn. Jacob Miller is everything Dinah could want in a partner--he's kind, handsome, strong--and nothing she can ever have. As much as she yearns to help the new family adjust, each minute Dinah spends with Jacob and the baby leaves her heart more vulnerable and her head more certain that the secret she hides makes a future with the Miller men impossible.
Jacob has long admired Dinah for her strength and independence, but it's her generosity of spirit that tempts him like never before. With Dinah at his side, Jacob opens himself up to the daunting new world of fatherhood, but how can he pursue his feelings for her when his life is in such disarray? After the disappointments of her first marriage, she deserves better than what Jacob can offer.
But love has a surprise in store for these two troubled hearts, and happiness is within reach if only they can grasp it, making Promise Glen their own promised land.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
With characteristic heart and respect for Amish culture, Perry's third Promise Glen romance (after A Springtime Heart) offers a sweet story of love and family. Widow Dinah Hershberger is living with her large, boisterous family and happily running a small coffee shop when Anna Miller, a young formerly Amish woman who "jumped the fence" into the English world, comes to her for help–with a caveat: Dinah can't tell Anna's brother, Jacob, that they're meeting. But when the favor turns out to involve taking in Anna's six-month old baby boy, Isaac, Jacob and Dinah come together to take care of him and keep him safe when his no-good father comes looking for him—even as they fight their mutual attraction. The immersive narrative draws readers into the unexpected intricacies of Amish society, particularly delving into Dinah's complicated relationship with her late husband. Through lovingly detailed characterization, Perry crafts a tale of hope built on a solid foundation of family unity. Amish romance fans will find this hits the spot.
