description: WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN AMISH GIRL'S PRINCE CHARMING IS AN ENGLISCHER?
  
  Emma Miller is on the cusp of leaving childhood behind and entering the adult world. She has finished school and started her own wool business, and she longs for someone to court. When the object of her affection is a handsome English sheep farmer with a fast truck and modern methods, her deacon father, Simon, knows he has more than the farm alliance to worry about.
  
  Emma isn't the only one with longings in Holmes County. Her mother yearns for relief from a debilitating disease, Aunt Hannah wishes for a baby, and Uncle Seth hopes he'll reap financial rewards when he undertakes a risk with his harvest. But are these the plans God has for this close-knit Amish family?
  
  An engaging story about waiting on God for His perfect timing and discovering that dreams planted close to home can grow a lasting harvest of hope and love.
