Escape the helter-skelter of the modern culture and join software creator Annie Friesen, hiding at the home of an Amishman. With her high-tech career in jeopardy, Annie runs from fast-paced Colorado Springs—and straight into the hospitality of San Luis Valley's Amish community. There she meets cabinetmaker Rufus Beiler, and the more time she spends with him, the more attracted she becomes. When Annie finds she shares a common ancestor with Rufus, she feels both cultures colliding within her. But is her love for Rufus strong enough for her to give up the only life she's ever known?

Software creator Annie Friesen leaves Colorado Springs and hides among the Amish in San Luis Valley in an effort to keep her work safe from a cunning business partner. While she's there, she discovers that she has ancestral ties to the community. She develops an attraction to Rufus Beiler, a cabinetmaker who is having business troubles of his own. Rufus also finds himself facing family difficulties when his sister, Ruth, decides to leave. VERDICT Heartwarming and atmospheric, Newport's latest (after The Pursuit of Lucy Banning) should appeal to fans of Marta Perry.
