She never wanted to marry. He hopes to make amends for past wrongs. Can love find a way to heal both of their hearts?
Sadie Schrock swore she would never marry. All of her other Amish friends can court and marry-but she is content to manage the family business and eventually take it over when her parents are ready to retire. But all of that changes when a reckless driver kills both of her parents and seriously injures her younger sister. With mounting hospital bills adding to the pile of debt her parents left behind, Sadie is left with no choice: she must marry. And not just any man-the man who saw her at her weakest and walked away.
Aden knows what his brother did to Sadie years ago was inexcusable. And every day since that incident, Aden has lived with the guilt for not intervening sooner. When he is faced with the chance to protect Sadie once again, he can't let her down-even if it means living with the scorn of the woman he loves for the rest of his life.
Working alongside Aden at the store, Sadie realizes he isn't the same boy who once betrayed her. Just when Sadie starts to let her guard down and perhaps develop feelings for her new husband, dangerous secrets are revealed. Now everything Sadie has worked so hard to protect is threatened, and she must find a way to save her family-and herself.

This was an enjoyable story to read as it was very well developed. Although a romance it does cover issues of verbal and physical abuse and the effect down through the generations. I think it showed the power of forgiveness to bring change and peace really well.

Changes
Sadie is devastated when her parents are killed in an accident, it doesn't help that her pastor later refuses to lend her money and instead forces her into marriage. The author brings dynamic characters to life and uses the characters to develop a complex story in a simple setting. It's more the interaction between characters than the location or places that creates a captivating story.

Lovely
This is such a crazy story! It starts out heartbreaking and just gets worse and worse throughout! She experiences so much heartbreak in a very short period of time that leaves you wondering how she will survive! \\r\\nThe violence is an usual aspect however it brings dynamic approach and creates a different way of bringing the details to light

Interesting Plot
I enjoyed this new book from Katherine Fuller. It has all the typical Amish romance elements, but follows the story of a dishonest Bishop and his family. It is clear that the author wanted to bring through themes of honesty, integrity and forgiveness. I appreciated that it seemed a bit more realistic than some novels, with not everything neatly wrapped up in a bow by the close of the story. Definetly reminded me of how amazing God's love is for us. A great read
