Widow Leah Yoder married for love once. Now that she's come home to Seven Poplars, she wants a marriage of convenience that will provide a longed–for family without dishonoring the memory of her late husband. A steady, serious older man would be ideal–someone completely unlike handsome, fun–loving Thomas Stutzman.

She and the aspiring organic farmer agree to court to prove that this time, the matchmaker has made a mistake! But as their friendship deepens, will Leah settle for what she thought she needed, or put fear aside for a second chance at happiness?
