Imagine being an Amish girl who falls hard for a handsome veterinarian who is English. This is Sarah King's dilemma with Dr. Grant Williams. They both love one another but it is the ultimate forbidden love. What would you do if you were Sarah? Give up your family, friends and Amish life to go English. What about Dr. Williams, should he give up the love of his life and remain English forever or do the unthinkable and become Amish? The book looks at the lives of both people and shows you the cultural differences between the two cultures. Read the book and decide what you would do. Perhaps, you will then understand why they decided to do exactly what they did. This book has the best romantic tension I have ever read (although technically I listened to it on audiobook). The author builds such an incredible attraction between the two main characters, and even though the story is really pure, you could *feel* the heat between them, the potential. That being said, I did get a little frustrated with the male lead for what I felt was his irresponsible behavior towards the heroine. I feel that he could have been a bit more honorable and less pushy, and about halfway (maybe two thirds) through I experienced a strong desire to punch him in the gut and tell him to back off and quit leading her on and pressuring her, if you care about her, you jerk! But the ending was really satisfying, and seriously, the attraction between these two...I could *feel* it. I almost got uncomfortable during one of their private conversations and felt like I was intruding on a really intense, private moment - and then I remembered that they were fictional people. I applaud the author for her masterful ability to write such pure sexual longing. Overall, I definitely enjoyed the book, despite wishing that someone would scold the male lead. He turns out not to be such a jerk ;)
