Sweet Forgiveness — Hannah Miller

When Jeremy Slagel returns to Baker's Corner to take care of his bitter and dying father, he's already anticipating the day when he can leave again. A woman from his past causes him to suddenly rethink his plans, but how can he consider staying in a place full of such pain and devastating memories? Five years ago, Lovina Wyse is distraught when Jeremy Slagel leaves their small Amish community of Baker's Corner and moves to Illinois. But she doesn't have time to dwell on her broken dreams or her broken heart, since every spare minute is devoted to caring for her elderly parents. Even though Jeremy is back now, she knows it's only temporary. She can't allow him into her heart when he'll just desert her again.Both Jeremy and Lovina have forgotten about love's amazing power. Both of them have forgotten what they truly mean to each other. Can Jeremy and Lovina open their hearts and move beyond past hurts and find love at last? Or will their fears force them to inevitably part once more?
