Simon Graber became a widower and a bishop early in life.  His sole focus is his very close-knit Old Order Amish community - not entertaining the idea of marriage, despite what many of the elders think.  When sickness comes to Cherry Grove, Kentucky, Simon reaches out to a neighboring community for help.  But help begins to look a lot like a second chance when Stella Schmucker agrees to offer her vast herbal knowledge to the sick.  Can it be that these two, who have been too busy serving others to entertain the idea of love, have met at just the perfect time for an unlikely courtship?
