Publisher's Synopsis
Unlike most women her age, Linda Shrock has no plans to get married - ever. She wants to be like Aenti Lea - single, self-supporting, and independent.
When her sister Ruth has baby number five in six years, Linda goes to stay with them. Things aren't going well. Ruth is upset all the time, the infant can't keep her food down and cries constantly, and Ruth's husband's furniture-making business is struggling. These are not the makings for a merry Christmas. They only serve to confirm Linda's desire to remain single. To make matters worse, the Weavers' hired hand, Luke Troyer, seems determined to disrupt Linda's carefully made plans to live her life out as a spinster. She tries to fight the intense attraction that pulls her and Luke together. Can Linda remain strong enough to follow through with her plans, or will her heart open to love and marriage?
