Marlena needed time to let things sink in. It was beyond
her how all this could possibly work out--adding the care of an infant to her
daily routine. Fortunately, it would just be until Luella returned home from
the hospital and was stronger.
No more than a couple weeks, surely.
Marlena Wenger's life takes an unexpected turn on the day she learns she must care for her estranged sister's baby. Spending the summer in Brownstown, Pennsylvania, to assist her Mennonite grandmother, and miles from Marlena's Old Order Amish beau, she feels out of her element in nearly every respect. Yet Marlena determines to do her best and stay focused on her future, even as those hopes become drastically altered.

I have always enjoyed Beverly Lewis’ books and this was no
exception. I love the way her characters come to life. The Amish setting is
always intriguing to me. The simpler lifestyle has a pull to it.
I was given this book free from Bethany House in exchange
for an honest review.
