One Amish man helps to revive a young widow's struggling orchard--and heal her heart--in this light, warmhearted Amish romance perfect for fans of Jo Ann Brown and Jocelyn McClay.

Widow Miriam Esh has to find a fiancé, or her overbearing bruder-in-law will sell her familye apple orchard. He's already taken it upon himself to hire someone--likely another man presuming he knows what's best for her land. But if she's going to save it, Miriam must focus on finding a suitable husband, not on the new orchardist or on how good he is with her son, and definitely not on how his smile scatters her thoughts . . .

By the looks of things at the Esh estate, Daniel Beiler knows Miriam could use a hand. Only the stubborn widow doesn't want to take any of his advice. Yet as they spend their days working side-by-side and sharing warm meals, Daniel and Miriam can't deny the growing comfort in each other's company. So when Miriam begins receiving attention from eligible men seeking a wife, Daniel must admit his feelings for her before it's too late. With the promise that he'll be the partner she can trust, can Daniel convince Miriam that he should also be the mann in her life?
