Old Order Amish wife and mother Jemima Graber has put her marriage and young children ahead of herself for
years. For the last decade she's set herself aside while her husband, Roy, invested in the family's successful horse farm.
While raising four little ones, she's followed all the rules and patiently waited to finally chase a dream of her own.
But now, at the time when her dreams are about to be realized, Roy has grown distant from Jem, and she doesn't
know what to make of his unusual moods and absences. Is his erratic behavior somehow connected to the tenant in
the family's rental property, an Englisch woman Roy dated during his rumschpringe days? And if so, how far does God's
forgiveness extend in impossible situations?

Starred review from March 2, 2020
In this charming inspirational from Cindy and Erin Woodsmall (A Christmas Haven), a mother and daughter-in-law writing team, Roy and Jemima Graber are an Amish couple coming to terms with life after a buggy accident leaves Roy debilitated and their eldest daughter disabled. A year after the accident, Roy becomes more distant from Jemima, and their difficulties go beyond Roy’s physical recuperation. Jemima’s badgering attitude, meanwhile, only serves to place a guilt trip on Roy. Jemima learns that Roy has cheated on her with a former girlfriend and, to support his girlfriend and their child, has drained the bank account that Jemima and Roy’s sister have been using to save money for a food truck. Despite Jemima’s devotion to her faith and family, the prospect of rebuilding trust will not be easy. Roy’s emotionally charged road to redemption provides many profound moments of reflection from the characters on the ripple effects of sins and the struggle to forgive. This is the Woodsmalls’ best work yet.
