My Review:
This was a compelling story with a theme of second chances.  Levi Wyse left the Amish community ten years ago to pursue a career in the rodeo. But unexpected circumstances led Levi, a widower with a young son, back to his former home—the ranch owned by the Schroder family.  The timing couldn’t have been more perfect for the Schroder sisters.  Their family ranch is in desperate financial trouble as their ranch manager had stolen a large amount of money and left them in danger of losing their home and cattle herd.  As Levi seeks to honor the family had given him support in the past, he decides to temporarily drop off the rodeo circuit to help save the ranch.  Gail, the oldest sister, has always had feelings for Levi, even through the years he had been away from their community.  As Levi becomes reacquainted with his Amish background, he realizes he needs to make some changes for both he and his son.  However, a secret from his past may make returning home to stay an impossibility.  

I enjoyed reading Gail and Levi’s story.  I liked the way that Gail held on to her faith in tough times, and how she tried to make the best decisions she could for her family.  I found the differences in this Amish community interesting as compared to some others across the country.  I wished that there could have been another chapter to this book to have answered some questions about the other Schroder sisters, but hopefully these will be answered in another book.
