Publisher's Synopsis
All her life, Jolene Weiger has taken care of her developmentally delayed brother, Bennie. Their mother wants nothing to do with him and turned Bennie over to Jolene as a young girl. Now grown, Jolene is engaged to marry, but her beau doesn't want to start married life with Bennie in tow.
Jolene calls off her engagement, secretly wishing she were engaged to Amos Zook, her best friend from childhood. But Amos is engaged to another. Jolene's mother announces she's marrying an Englischer and is leaving the Amish church. Jolene staggers under the implications. Getting no help from her married sisters, Jolene is on her own with Bennie. As Amos watches her struggle, the truth of his feelings snaps into place. But he's engaged to another, and he's a man of his word. How can he unentangle himself so he can court the woman he really loves?
