Leah Mast and her family have always considered her to have a healing touch and a special gift for reflexology - treating people's ailments by massaging certain places on their feet. But others scoff at the notion, saying the very idea of curing people through their feet is absurd. Adam Beachy is one of those scoffers, even though his own mother used to practice reflexology.

Publisher's Summary
Food and friendships bind souls in an Amish kitchen.
Return to the Troyer farm, where, despite stressful changes occurring in their lives, Lyle and Heidi once again open up their Ohio home to those seeking to learn about Amish cooking.
This time six unique adults sign up. Nicole Smith - a teenager helping her divorced dad cook for the family. Lisa Brooks - a caterer needing new recipes. Todd Collins - a food critic who is curious about the way Amish women cook. Bill Mason - a member of a hunting club who always gets stuck cooking for his buddies. Allie Garrett - a police officer's wife who is given the class as an unwanted gift. Lance Freemont - a mailman who smells the good food when he delivers a package to the door.
More than recipes are exchanged, though, as friendships form, a romance blossoms, and hearts receive healing nourishment - including Heidi's own hurting heart.

Too many character stories
If you like multiple character stories, you will like this book. The story is good and ends on a satisfying note. My problem, as with the first of this series, is that there are so many characters, I lost track. I'm sure readers that like lots of characters will like this story, just not my fav.
