Caleb's father has forbidden his son to court Nellie, but his words can't stop Caleb's devotion. Yet he risks losing everything he stands to inherit. Nellie, too, is torn. She longs to marry Caleb, her Old Order beau, yet can't ignore her New Order family. While struggling to come to terms with her grief over the death of her beloved sister, Nellie visits the Mennonite friends who were with Suzy on that fateful day when she drowned. Will Nellie discover the missing pieces of her sister's life—and her own future? And can she and Caleb satisfy the expectations of their people while remaining true to their hearts?
