When Englischer Elizabeth meets hunky Amish farmer James, she knows he disapproves of her friendship with his sister. She and James come from very different worlds and, even though they seem to have no future, she cannot forget him. James is kind and sweet. She comes to love him and, although very lonely, Elizabeth knows he must forget her.

Her only living relative is her much older brother whom she doesn't really know. She asks God to help her know how to make her lonely way and to help her forget the one man who she can never have. Elizabeth refuses to entice James into joining her world.

Can these two find a way to a loving life together?
