The arrival of a wealthy young man leads Grace to question what she really wants in life.
She thought she knew what she wanted in life . . . then Jonathan
arrived.
Eighteen-year-old Grace Knutson loves Blessing, North Dakota, and
sees no reason to leave. She's more serious-minded than her twin
sister, Sophie, and very sensitive to the feelings of others. In
spite of her family's disapproval, Grace has always had a soft spot
in her heart for Toby Valders, for she's seen the vulnerable side
he keeps well hidden.
Jonathan Gould, the handsome scion of a wealthy New York family,
creates a flurry of anticipation and speculation when he arrives in
Blessing. Jonathan's father wants him to learn the value of manual
labor and to appreciate the accomplishments of those not born to
wealth. Surprisingly, the "city boy" takes to farm life and
actually enjoys working from dawn to dusk alongside the others.
Soon he finds himself inexplicably drawn to gentle, courageous
Grace.
But Jonathan's affection presents an agonizing dilemma for Grace.
Is he truly the one her heart desires?
