In this historical Amish romance, a local bakery offers tempting aromas—and second chances for those who seek a life of faith and lasting love. Charm, Ohio, 1912. Ellie Graber couldn't be happier working at Amish Charm Bakery—and making good on a precious chance to reunite with her Amish community. Grief over her mother's death made her rebel and try the Englischer world, but now she's home to start again. And quiet, thoughtful Joel Wenger is one of the few willing to understand her as their unexpected friendship develops into something more . . . But no matter how hard Ellie tries, Joel's mother refuses to approve of her—much less accept her as a potential daughter-in-law. As painful misunderstandings and a beautiful rival for Joel's affections threaten to drive them apart, Ellie and Joel wonder if they bridge the gap between them to secure a lifetime of love.

Ellie Stone is a professed modern girl in 1960s' New York City, playing by her own rules and breaking boundaries while searching for a killer among the renowned scholars in Columbia University's Italian Department. "If you were a man, you'd make a good detective." Ellie Stone is sure that Sgt. McKeever meant that as a compliment, but that identity-a girl wanting to do a man's job-has throttled her for too long. It's 1960, and Ellie doesn't want to blaze any trails for women; she just wants to be a reporter, one who doesn't need to swat hands off her behind at every turn.

But as secrets are revealed and scandal hits the headlines, the act of caring for this man threatens to tarnish both of their reputations.
