As the story unfolds, Abby is very busy, helping her mother, helping Naomi, Abraham’s eldest child from his first marriage.

Abby on the other hand, just sees him as a big brother. Can Abby overcome her grief long enough to see she is loved by someone right in front of her?

I enjoyed this book as much as I did the first book, The Storekeepers Daughter. Wanda E. Brunstetter knows her Amish history. Bravo to Ms. Brunstetter for another well-written novel. The next book in this series, The Bishop’s Daughter, will be available in the fall of 2006.
