Rachel Beachy desires and hopes for something she can't have, her sister Anna's boyfriend.
Silas Swartley has been in love with the spirited Anna since they were children, and Rachel, the tomboy, has loved Silas for nearly as long. Like Job from the Bible, Rachel feels that her swiftly moving days are spent without hope-hope of ever making Silas take notice of her.
But when Anna unexpectedly leaves the Amish faith, Rachel's hope is rekindled. She initiates a campaign to win Silas's heart and begins to fill her hope chest when she discovers how much she and Silas have in common.
Can Silas set the pain of Anna's rejection aside and see Rachel as anything more than a tomboy who is little more than a child? Will Rachel be disappointed in Silas and in God, or will she learn the true meaning of hope?
Excellent reading. Great Author..
