It's 1971 and nineteen-year-old Betsie Troyer's life has been governed by the predictable patterns of her Amish community. Suddenly, the life that she has grown to love is falling apart. Her parents have secretly fled the community and she and her sister could be shunned if anyone finds out.

When she's in Plain City with him, things are cut-and-dried--but now that she knows the hopes and heartaches of the Sullivan family, nothing is so simple.
