Charity Martin must choose between her passion for art and love. Charity Martin's God-given talent shines in the paintings she sells to English tourists. She fears she'll have to sacrifice her love of painting for her love of David Zook, but her betrothed's bishop father forbids the marriage and ostracizes her. Charity finds a new home in a Nebraska community with the help of Bishop Byler and begins teaching at the Amish school. James Troyer, another newcomer, is intrigued by Charity's talent. But Byler's granddaughter, Wilma, one of the best bakers in the community, has her sights set on James. Charity continues to have feelings for David and doesn't want to compete over James, but in jealousy Wilma throws the spotlight on Charity's shortcomings and "prideful" artistic pursuits. When it all comes to a head, Charity might be forced to sacrifice her calling to compose a portrait of love in her life. This sweet tale from Annie's Hearts of Amish Country series is a must-read for those who love stories of faith, friendship, and wholesome romance.
