Author Description

At nineteen years old, Old Order Amish Jolene Keim was on the brink of happily ever after when everything changed, stealing the future she expected and burdening her with an unbearable decision. For the next ten years, Jolene throws herself into family life -- and then she meets Andy Fisher. The horse trainer and father to a sweet nine year-old challenges her and holds up a mirror to issues Jolene has been unwilling to face. Andy is cautious about his deepening friendship with Jolene, but he believes she knows the truth about him -- that he is a grass widower. As a man whose wife has abandoned him six years past, he is unable to divorce or remarry according to the Amish ways. Andy has wrestled with God concerning his reality, and he had found peace with the solitary future facing him... until he met Jolene. As Andy and Jolene find themselves confronted by difficult choices, will they trust in God's guidance -- or will the allure of their deepening friendship only lead to further temptation?
