Description

In this touching Amish romance, a brokenhearted woman and a steadfast man discover that the safest place to weather tragedy is in each other's arms. After the murder of both her parents, Emma Hochstedler returns to the small community of Johns Mill, hoping to resume her quiet existence. Reclaiming her place proves harder than expected-especially now that a movie is being made about her family's loss. But then, an old friend offers her a lifeline that gives her new purpose. Amish builder Samuel Christner is the biggest-and the strongest-man in town. In fact, the gentle giant has only one weakness-Emma. Even though she broke his heart, he won't let his childhood sweetheart face her troubles alone. He hires Emma as a nurse for his elderly aunt...and finds himself falling for her all over again. But while romance blooms, storm clouds gather. And when darkness falls, it will take all Sam's strength-and all their love-to see them through.
