Publisher's summary

From best-selling author Shelley Shepard Gray comes a tender story of faith, family, and finding love with the Amish of Sugarcreek.

Christina Kempf has always felt that God chose Aden Reese to be her husband. When they were children, Aden was there to save her when she fell through a patch of thin ice, and he's been by her side ever since. After his parents died in a car accident 10 years ago, the Kempfs raised Aden as one of their own, and everyone sees Aden and Christina as brother and sister. But Christina has never given up hope that Aden will one day see her as the perfect woman for him…and ask her to be his wife.

Despite what his heart wants, Aden can't find it in himself to repay the Kempfs' kindness with an admission that his feelings for Christina have only ever been romantic. But when she's pressured by her parents to court more broadly, Christina begins to accept the attentions of Sugarcreek's young men.

Now Aden must make a choice. Will he stand by and watch the love of his life slip away? Or will he risk losing the love and trust of the family he holds dear to tell Christina how he truly feels?

Narrator Changed From First Book

I’m not sure why the narrator is different from the first book in this series but she is also the narrator for the third book. I’m not far into this book and am going to have to take a break because the narrator’s voice is really not pleasant to me. I really want to give this book a chance and have already purchased the third book (all based on the narration of the first book…I should have double checked the narrators for the second two before purchasing). However, I’m going to have to go on to a different listen for now. I’m so sad that the third book is read by this same narrator.
