Desperate for a Ticket Out
Bethany Weiss is ready to leave town. Tongues haven't stopped clacking in Jamesport, MO, since her daed, the bishop, was admitted to a mental hospital after hurting their small Amish community. But her sharpest wounds Bethany hides from prying eyes, quietly biding her time until she can take a chance at a new life—away from Jamesport and away from God.
Searching for a Home
Silas Beiler was kicked out of his own family's home. Dogged by a rough childhood and a family who blames him for each new disaster, he begins hitchhiking across the country, sleeping in barns where he can, working for food when possible—headed for Pennsylvania, in the hope of some stability.
A Memory of Lemonade
When Bethany spies a man asleep in the hayloft, she first fears the return of an unwelcome suitor. But when it is Silas who turns and speaks, the memories flood back: a happy summer six years ago full of lemonade, long walks, and budding courtship. Now, however, those months of bliss seem naïve and idyllic. Will their old love overcome new pain? Or will hurt and rejection continue to haunt their path?

My Review
Another great story written by Laura V. Hilton. I love reading her books never a let down of a sweet inspirational romance. characters are well written. story of abuse, shame and forgiveness! Bethany is wanting to leave town so she doesn't have to marry a abuser. All she can think of is getting out of Jamesport and God as far as she can. Then Silas returns to town and is willing to work for a place to stay and some pay. Running from his own problems to get as far away from his family as possible. To start a new life. But working for Bethany's family brings back old feelings they had between them. But something is holding him back. can they overcome all that is going on and reunite? Wonderful book.
