Her days and nights are filled with caring for both. Having lost their parents two years before, the girls work together to keep their legacy alive, and each one has a responsibility to fulfill. Lily loves baking delicious pastries, bread, cookies and pies for their community, but she feels that something is missing in her life. Although her time is taken up by her work and helping her older sister run their household, Lily’s heart longs for the kind of relationship her parents had, but no one in their small town of Greenwood, Kentucky has ever tried to win her heart. In her youth, her shyness prevented her from responding to any overtures, but now she is just too consumed with her duties to even try. Gabriel Albrect works for his father’s construction company and is a former charmer of women. However, after having his heart broken, he retreats from the social scene and throws himself into his work. He’s done with women now. But when his cousin comes to visit, he is reminded of his former self and knows that he has to take responsibility for his cousin’s actions. After all, he is the reason that Mark behaves this way. When Mark appears to be making advances toward Lily’s sisters, Gabriel steps forward to intervene. He cares deeply for the Springer sisters. Although he and Lily were once close friends, time and changes caused them to drift apart. While they are still friendly, the relationship is a shadow of what it once was. Gabriel feels helpless to change it, believing that Lily will never trust him again because of his past. Still, he wants to protect her sisters from the advances of his flirtatious cousin. As the anniversary of her parents’ death approaches, Lily feels vulnerable and calls out to the Lord for comfort. If she can’t have the desires of her heart, she asks that He take them from her. Little does she know that God has a plan for her that will go beyond all her hopes... less

Business has fallen off over the early summer, their busiest time of the year, and the sisters are worried. However, Iris Springer, the youngest, has a plan to save the shop, but she can’t tell her sisters because she’s sure they will thwart her plan. Dressing as an Englischer, she attends the local library to learn about computers so that she can advertise their bakery online. However, she’s found out by someone in the community, a person she’s been trying to avoid. When he confronts her and offers to help, she’s not sure what she should do. Mark Albrecht is struggling with his life choices. Although he’d like to stay in Greenwood, Indiana, he’s sure that his uncle will send him back to Lancaster when the summer’s finished. After all, he won’t be needed at the construction company after that. While he’s sorting out his plans, his heart continues to ache with the lost love he left behind when he came to Greenwood. No longer the biggest flirt in the community, he’s trying to find meaning in his life and the path that God wants him to follow. One night, he sees Iris at the library wearing jeans and a sweater. He mistakes her intentions for something else. Thinking that she’s on the verge of leaving the community, he intervenes, but the results of their conversation lead to something that neither of them suspected. The feelings they have for each other develop, but are suppressed for different reasons. Iris feels she would be betraying her older sister if she gives into her own heart’s desires, and Mark can’t allow himself to act on his feelings if he doesn’t even know where his future will be. Through a web of secrets, the two of them struggle to find God’s will for their lives, but end up discovering that all they ever needed to do was trust the One who knows what they need... less

Since her parents passed away two years before, she’s hasn’t had the same confidence and has been overlooked by the young men in her community. All her life she's been a devout follower of the faith, but she has yet to find a love of her own. Perhaps that's not in God's plan. As she walks home from a Singing one night, despondent over her situation, a speeding car startles her, and she stumbles into a ditch, breaking her wrist. The driver, Nathan Dawson, jumps out, brings her to the hospital and never stops apologizing, but Daisy insists on taking the blame. Her envy over her sisters' happiness caused this, nothing else. Nathan drives down the long dark road feeling hopeless and alone. He lost his father months before and has struggled to support his mother and brother. Now he’s lost his job too, and as he drives, his mind wanders and he doesn’t see the lonely girl walking down the road and nearly runs her over. Although he takes care of her, it doesn’t seem like enough. Through a twist of events, Nathan ends up helping out in the bakery, mostly out of guilt for his irresponsible driving. He does all he can for the Springer sisters, hoping to ease his conscience, but it's never enough. He cleans and repairs not only the bakery, but their home as well, promising to do all that he can until Daisy recovers. Through it all, he draws closer to Daisy and her kind, gentle ways. He seeks her out for comfort and peace, never dreaming that the whole time God was working out a plan for their lives to heal one another of the pain they've been facing. They don't belong together and never can. They are from two different worlds, and neither one is willing to cross the divide. When Nathan has to deal with yet another crisis in his life, the little bit of faith that, with Daisy's help he'd been trying to nurture, is threatened. Almost everything he's held onto in his life has been stripped away and any hope of joy seems to be fading. Only divine intervention can save him now. less

Lily’s wedding is quickly approaching, and Daisy and Iris are blissfully happy with their beaus. Rose rejoices for all of them, but sometimes has to resist the urge to feel envious. Marriage is not for her. She has the bakery to run. With her parents gone for nearly three years, Rose has become accustomed to their absence on one level, but the hole that her father left never quite closed. Doing the work he left behind has helped in some ways, but more recently, it has become a burden. Not blessed with the natural affinity for numbers or a fondness for technology, Rose struggles to keep the bakery in the black. Each day, she works from dawn until dark to get everything done, but all this has taken a toll. The pain medication that she used to take occasionally has become a steady part of her diet, but even its effectiveness is waning, as is her enthusiasm for her job. But what can she do? The bakery is her livelihood, her responsibility. Never one to complain, Rose bears her pain stoically and keeps a tight rein on her emotions, but thoughts of the future without her sisters by her side leave her weepy in unexpected moments. She withdraws from them more and more. Caleb Albrect, a shy man by nature and a confirmed bachelor as well, finds himself inexplicably drawn to Rose. Has God thrust her into his life? But for what purpose? In his confusion, he prays for guidance. He’d long thought that God had something else in store for him. Wasn’t he to remain single and serve the Lord? Like Gideon of old, Caleb asks God to show him the way to go. He sends out a request, and waits for the answer, but then hesitates. What will he do if God answers in a way that he doesn’t expect? The last of the Springer sisters’ longs for something more than what she’s been given, but is too stubborn and proud to admit it. Caleb never looked for love, but may be on the cusp of finding it. Will the two of them be able to set aside their own ideas and accept what God has for them? less
