Nineteen-year-old Rebecca Baard has experienced more than her
share of sorrow, and now she is afraid to open her heart to love.
Besides, no man has ever shown enough interest in her to come
courting. So Rebecca's friends set out to remedy the situation,
concocting social events to attract all the eligible bachelors in
Blessing and advising her in the use of feminine wiles. When non of
these efforts seem to work, Rebecca tries yet another tack, only to
discover that even the best of intentions can't keep events from
taking a surprising turn.
Will Rebecca overcome her fears, or will she settle for something
less than love?
