This is another excellent example to our younger generation about respect and honor within a dating relationship--respect and honor both to the person you are dating, and to God. I appreciate the use of scripture as the basis of each chapter theme. Ms Spredeman effectively takes that scripture and writes a believable display of the lesson taught through that scripture, while still keeping the flow of the story moving. I love the dialogue between the young characters, and the way the author stresses biblical principles through their conversations.Chloe is a fourteen year old girl who looks forward to being able to attend the singings so popular among the Amish young folks. Although nervous about the thought of her first singing, she loves the attention of the young men in attendance. She has had her eyes on Levi, whom she grew up with, but Saul, a young man from a neighboring district, gave her the first opportunity to say “yes” to a ride home that night.  Day after day, Chloe dreamt of Saul.  Could they have a future together?  Would they one day become husband and wife? Or, was her future supposed to be with Levi? Why did he keep popping into her mind?Saul had openly shown his love for her, and she knew that Levi was courting Joanna, so it must be right. But how will Saul deal with the news delivered by his bishop? Follow these teens through lessons of consequences, regret, respect, honor, learning to move on, and following after righteousness.A copy of the book was provided by the author in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are strictly my own. No compensation was received in exchange for a positive review.
