Ruth has worked hard to keep body and soul together since her husband, Levi’s, death. She tends her herd of goats, making her living from the milk and fiber she gets from them, all while running a farm and household by herself—and very competently, thank you! How could she imagine the bishop suggesting she should give it all up to another family, who will “make better use of the space”? Enter widower Jonas Hershberger, owner of a pair of adorable dimples and father of a charming 4-year-old daughter. Jonas is in need of a larger place to house his growing business. Ruth’s big red barn may be just the ticket. Little Abigail is in need of a new mother. Ruth might be just the ticket there, too! Can two independent souls learn to work together for their mutual good? And will they be willing to explore what grows between them? Or will Ruth’s fear over her “big secret” and Jonas’s caution about allowing someone new to get close to his young daughter, kill their love before it has a chance to grow? Luckily for both of them, God’s plan involves the stubborn pair getting a little help in the form of a wise, elderly friend; a quirky orange kitten; and a smart little girl who takes one look at Ruth and decides she would make her the perfect new mother!"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Includes recipes. 650 0 $a Widows $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Widowers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Single fathers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Amish $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Farms $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Kittens $v Fiction 655 7 $a Christian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Heart of the Amish. 941 $a 11 952 $l RNPC397 $d 20240528010035.0 952 $l FHPB224 $d 20240521010222.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240517010315.0 952 $l DHPB993 $d 20240514010213.0 952 $l SXPC124 $d 20240413011413.0 952 $l FFPC194 $d 20240410010201.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314030137.0 952 $l NJPD993 $d 20240304185544.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240202011518.0 952 $l WMPC185 $d 20240125155328.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20240104010128.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=81091F66959711EE9165B88051ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
