Rhododendrons and Ice Cream

Hannah Raber was torn between the restrictive rules of her loving Amish community and following her adventurous spirit in an unknown Englischer world. She was happy serving in her familye-owned ice cream shop, but would she be content never experiencing more?

Noah Stoltzfus lived on his own little farm, growing and selling rhododendrons in the little city of Eugene, a day's travel from his Amish family whom he was no longer permitted to see or visit. Besides this, he only had Amos, whose girlfriend Millie also lived with them, and a burning desire to see his ailing maem, daed, sister and little brother. He had made the decision to leave for his own well-being, and he had to abide by the rules which the bishop reminded him now applied to him as an outsider.

But would coming home be possible for the prodigal son? Can a boy leave to make his own life, and hope to return to what was, as a man? Could the broken heart and shattered trust of a younger brother ever be repaired? Together in a dilemma, but living in separate worlds, Hannah and Noah test the limits of their very different lives.
