Though Mary Yoder longs to marry someday, she finds caring
for her community’s injured and sick is much easier than courting. But
when Englischer Clay Markham crashes his car nearby, Mary’s nursing
shows her his hidden wounds are more painful than his injuries. Though
she’s irresistibly drawn to his kind nature, can she risk letting him
into her heart?
On the run from his troubled past, ex-pro
baseball player Clay can’t believe the quiet sanctuary he’s found under
Mary’s care. Her gentle faith and knowledge are somehow giving him hope
he can change his life—and offer her the love she truly deserves. But
when his secrets catch up with him, can he and Mary find the courage to
face the truth, set things to rights . . . and make way for a future
together?

My Review
This was a difficult read for me, I love this author's books, but this one was not one of them!
The values of the Amish and the adherence to the rules that keep them in their faith, and yes, they do have rumspringa, but this is a story of a woman whom had already been baptised.
There is a lot of drama here and the news media, especially one, that you will really dislike. Then again, for the Amish to call the news and participate?
You will need to judge for yourself, but this is not a typical story.
I dd enjoy the ending!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.
