Publisher's summary
Jennie Troyer knows it’s time to remarry. Can she overcome a painful secret and open her heart to love?
It’s been four years since Jennie’s husband died in a farming accident. Long enough that the elders in her Amish community think it’s time to marry again for the sake of her seven children. What they don’t know is that grief isn’t holding her back from a new relationship. Fear is. A terrible secret in her past keeps her from moving forward.
Mennonite book salesman Nathan Walker stops by Jennie’s farm whenever he’s in the area. Despite years of conversation and dinners together, she never seems to relax around him. He knows he should move on, but something about her keeps drawing him back.
Meanwhile, Leo Graber nurtures a decades-long love for Jennie, but guilt plagues him - guilt for letting Jennie marry someone else and guilt for his father’s death on a hunting trip many years ago. How could anyone love him again - and how could he ever take a chance to love in return?
In this second audiobook in the Every Amish Season series, three hearts try to discern God’s plan for the future - and find peace beneath the summer sun.

Really Loved This Book
I want to say that this Author has found a great reader for this story. Went to the extra that other authors have not done, to have all people, male and female reading the roles, it is so nice feeling like they were right here talking. Many books I have read do not do this. Older voices, younger ones, male and female. Really an easy listen. Thank you Kelly Erwin.
Would like to add that I am a birding person and they added in description of the birds heard and seen. Making bird houses and the families followed the story with that included. Lastly the story shares the birth of a younger couple welcoming in the family a set of twins. I had gone through the surprise of our identical twins and the joy the whole family like this story relates, Just was special to me how this author includes family issues as well. Very good read, Disappointed when it was all over. Good ending.
Marilyn
