Bonnie and Elijah each believe that marriage is not in their futures . . . but they hadn't counted on God's plans being bigger than their own imaginations.

Bonnie Yoder owns and operates a gift shop popular with tourists and local shoppers alike. She's glad she's found a way to be a productive member of her Plain community where all women aspire to marry and have children--something she's sure she'll never do because of her physical disability.

Elijah Miller has been acutely shy his entire life, which makes joining his brothers as auctioneers unthinkable. It also means he's never courted a woman. Instead, he spends every spare moment creating wooden children's toys and child-size furniture in a workshop he built behind his parents' house, all the while dreaming of starting his own business.

It's that dream that prompts Elijah to approach Bonnie about selling his wares in her store. He feels an immediate connection. So does Bonnie, but she's afraid to believe he'll ever see her as more than a shop owner kind enough to sell his toys. Elijah's convinced that someone so sure of herself would never be interested in a man who's too shy to put two sentences together around her.

What they can't see, others can. Matchmaking mothers and caring friends conspire to bring the two together. After spending time with each other, Elijah and Bonnie learn that sometimes the most challenging obstacle is a lack of faith--in themselves and in God. Together, they will traverse a difficult road to find their way to the future they've never allowed themselves to dream of having.
