In 1737, Anna Konig and her fellow church members stagger off a
small wooden ship after ten weeks at sea, eager to start a new life
in the vibrant but raw Pennsylvania frontier. On the docks of Port
Philadelphia waits bishop Jacob Bauer, founder of the settlement
and father to ship carpenter Bairn. It's a time of new beginnings
for the reunited Bauer family, and for Anna and Bairn's shipboard
romance to blossom. But this perfect moment cannot last. As Bairn
grasps the reality of what it means to be Amish in the New
World--isolated, rigid with expectations, under the thumb of his
domineering father--his enthusiasm evaporates. When a sea captain
offers the chance to cross the ocean one more time, Bairn grabs it.
Just one more crossing, he promises Anna. But will she wait for
him? When Henrik Newman joins the church just as it makes its way
to the frontier, Anna is torn. He seems to be everything Bairn is
not--bold, devoted, and delighted to vie for her heart. And the
most dramatic difference? He is here; Bairn is not. Far from the
frontier, an unexpected turn of events weaves together the lives of
Bairn, Anna, and Henrik. When a secret is revealed, which true love
will emerge?
