Synopses & Reviews
Beth Hertzler works alongside her beloved Aunt Lizzy in their dry goods store, and serving as contact of sorts between Amish craftsmen and Englischers who want to sell the Plain peoples wares. But remorse and loneliness still echo in her heart everyday as she still wears the dark garb, indicating mourning of her fiancé. When she discovers a large, intricately carved scene of Amish children playing in the snow, something deep inside Beths soul responds and she wants to help the unknown artist find homes for his work-including Lizzys dry goods store. But she doesnt know if her bishop will approve of the gorgeous carving or deem it idolatry.
Lizzy sees the changes in her niece when Beth shows her the woodworking, and after Lizzy hunts down Jonah, the artist, she is all the more determined that Beth meets this man with the hands that create healing art. But its not that simple-will Lizzys elaborate plan to reintroduce her niece to love work? Will Jonah be able to offer Beth the sleigh ride shes always dreamed of and a second chance at real love-or just more heartbreak?
