Bol

They come from different worlds...Can love conquer the barriers between them?All alone on the Kansas prairie, Summer Steadman has few options. With her husband and children lost to illness, she has no desire to continue on farther west to where she and her husband planned to build their future. Instead, she seeks employment in a small Mennonite community in order to be near the graves of her family.Widower Peter Ollenburger, the local gristmill owner, needs someone to teach his son. When he hears of a "learned woman" in town, he believes she is the answer to his prayers. He soon discovers, however, that helping this outsider may have troublesome consequences.There is little this father will not do for his son, but as the boy begins to look at Summer as more than a teacher, Peter must make a choice. Does he marry the woman and give his son a new mother, or does he marry only for love?"A tale of prairie life that will touch your heart and warm your soul." --Janette OkeThis volume is the 20th Anniversary edition of Kim's first traditionally published, full-length historical novel, gently edited for a new generation of readers.
