title: The Storekeeper's Daughter
author: Brunstetter, Wanda E.
description: Time appears to stand still in Naomi Fisher's Pennsylvania Amish community .... But she's running out of time to correct a terrible mistake.
  
  Naomi was content with her life...
  ...until her mother died in an accident.
  ...until her somber father needed her to tend the family store every day.
  ...until her seven siblings started relying on her for their needs.
  ...until her "English" friend showed her how confining her life had become.
  ...until her heart started to long for romance.
  
  When Naomi turns her back on one basic duty, the unthinkable happens -- and now she feels unworthy to accomplish anything set before her. How can she escape the weight on her spirit that paralyzes her emotions? Is there any redemption for such a failure?
