This is the story of Annie Martin, an Old Order Mennonite girl, and Aden Zook, an Old Older Amish boy. Due to conflict at home with her Mamm, Annie goes to stay with her grandfather in Apple Ridge. It is there she is reunited with Aden. She had helped his family in the past when Aden's brother and father were involved in an accident. The two quickly realize they have feelings for each other; however, they are not sure what to do about their relationship since both of them have made vows to their separate faiths. If they continue their relationship, Annie's grandfather has threatened to take away the partnership he has with Aden's family to provide electricity to their family restaurant.
I recommend this book to you. It was well-written, and I enjoyed getting to know these characters. I wondered how realistic this book is. The characters snuck around to spend time together against their family's wishes. Would this (and the outcome...don't want to give a spoiler) really happen? I look forward to more books from this author.
This audio book was ready by Cassandra Campbell. She did an excellent job and made this audio book very enjoyable in my opinion.
Thank you to the christianaudio Reviewers program for providing this audio book for my review.
Have a day of blessings!

Sounds like a good book. I've found books about the Amish interesting--probably because I don't live too far from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. I've enjoyed some of Beverly Lewis' books and would be interested in another source as well.
