This was a really good book set in Pennsylvania's Amish country. Its about a woman who is in search of her roots. Fiona is a nurse midwife in San Francisco and has had a less than wonderful upbringing. She takes a leap of faith and decides to find her roots, which lead her to Crossroads Township, PA. Her fathers family is Mennonite and she has been in contact with them for some while via letters, but he mothers family is Amish and she has never had any contact with them. Deciding to stay in the area and open her own practice, she is at first irritated with Ted Rittenhouse, the local law enforcement. But soon she comes to rely on him not only for friendship but for help in fitting in with the community. This book reads more like a woman's journey with a little romance thrown in, than a flat out romance, but is still a wonderful read.
