From the Back Cover

Putting her rumschpringe (running around years) behind her, Grace Hostettler returns to Holmes County, Ohio; joins the Amish church; and begins a new life with a new romance. The next four years are nearly idyllic for the oldest Hostettler child— except for the hidden pain she bears from a carefully harbored secret.

Her peaceful world is shattered the day she runs into Gary Walker—an English man who knows enough about her past to destroy her future. Gary’s arrival in Holmes County coincides with a series of startling attacks against the the Hostettlers. Is Gary at the root of this evil?

Amishman, Cleon Schrock, plans to marry Grace, but is unaware of her past. When evidence of Grace’s deception arrives on her family’s doorstep, will Cleon abandon the woman he loves?

Will one woman’s secrets destroy an entire Amish community? Can love and faith triumph over shame and deception?
