Boaz and Ruth's Amish Love

"When Ruth's husband Mahlon dies one morning on his way out the door, she thinks she will never find love again--but little does she know that God has a miraculous plan for her future. Her mother-in-law, Naomi, has lost her husband and now both of her sons. Bitter with grief, she thinks her life is over and moves back to her hometown, Unity, Maine. Ruth goes with her, even though Naomi urges her not to follow her. In Unity, Ruth catches the eye of successful farmer Boaz Petersheim. He's drawn to her not only because of her beauty, but because of her loyalty and devotion to Naomi. When Ruth asks for a job harvesting wheat in his fields, he immediately hires her because he can see how much she wants to take care of her mother-in-law, even though she is the only female worker among his male employees. Wanting to help them even more, he even lets them stay in his rental house for free, and Naomi makes a new friend on the farm who lifts her spirits. Ruth's arrival in Unity causes an upheaval in Sylvia Berger's life. Sylvia has always believed she and Boaz belong together, so when she notices Boaz falling for Ruth, she makes it her mission to destroy Ruth's reputation--but it goes too far. When rumors sweep through the community after a near-death experience, who will Boaz believe?" -- Back cover.
