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?

The Good Book Stall

Large print edition available  
The granddaughters are getting older and are moving out into the world, so this story takes us far away from Blessing and the area with which you have become familiar if you have been following this series as I have. Yet through it all, it is firmly anchored back in Blessing where the majority of the family come through a very difficult time with the help of a good friend. Grace is the deaf daughter of Kaaren and Lars, twin sister of Sophie; she never expected to leave home but she has to work out her destiny for herself, with all the heartache that involves.
