author: Bawell, Ruth
description: Lydia Fisher has no time for love. She has been helping raise her younger siblings since the death of her mother five years ago, when she was fourteen. She has never even been to a Singing before, until she goes to chaperone her sister, Esther. And she certainly never expected to meet the handsome young Rueben Troyer on her very first visit! Lydia has never met anyone like Reuben, and she is drawn to his kind and gentle nature. But she will not let herself be tempted from her duties, Instead, Lydia turns away from her feelings for Rueben, and does her best to resist his invitations. She even stops going to the Singings, though she had grown to enjoy them. But Gott has a way of making His will known, and some love is meant to be. And slowly, Lydia realizes that love only grows when shared.
