About the book:
What happens when we allow our pasts to define our futures?
Mary Margaret Miller needs an escape from her small Amish community. She boards a bus, all alone, for a vacation in Pinecraft, Florida. Meeting Betsy and Lilly on the way, she's amazed to find two kindred spirits. They become fast friends and determine to have the best two weeks of their lives. For Mary, it starts when she meets Jayson Raber, a handsome and charming carpenter.
Jayson is taken with Mary from the get-go, but he has responsibilities back home in Kentucky--including a girl he's supposed to marry. And when someone from Mary's past shows up in Pinecraft, it seems like her perfect vacation is ruined. But that's nothing compared to what's coming when she realizes what Jayson has been hiding . . .

My review:
This was a sweet story and I really liked how we got different points of view and different storylines so there was always something going on! I admired Mary and for her willingness to forgive and move on when her unexpected visitor showed up, though it wasn't easy. Jayson was in quite the predicament, so that was an interesting situation he had to handle. We also got to see how the visitor felt and her changes in the story and then how someone she meets has his life changed for the better. The setting was wonderful, of course, so picturesque and definitely makes me wish for the beach! There's lots of talk about faith and there's also sweet romance! I'm looking forward to the next one! I recommend this book if you like Amish or romance stories.
I received this book free from Revell. I was not compensated for this review. All opinions are my own.
