Book one of 5 by this author. After 2 years away, Katie Lantz returns to her Amish community 9 months pregnant- and unmarried. With no where else to turn, she nervously knocks on her family's door, fearing that she will be shunned. Yet the handsome stranger who owns the farm welcomes her in just in time for Katie to give birth.

Carpenter Elam Sutter and his kindly mother care for Katie and her newborn in a loving way that she never dreamed was possible. But in the face of a heart wrenching choice, Katie learns just what family , faith and acceptance truly means.

This is the best Amish book that I have read and I have read a lot. The author has done a lot of current research on how the Amish currently live. Land has become so expensive that they have turned to home businesses to make a living and stay within their community.
