The Promise

Sometimes love is where you least expect it... Sarah Yoder has always dreamed of having a family of her own. But with no eligible prospects, she's beginning to worry--until the Rabor brothers return to Cedar Grove. Sarah and Isaac Rabor walked out together the summer they were sixteen, so perhaps he's the answer to her prayers. The only trouble is that she can't seem to catch his eye. If only she had a little help... Levi Rabor has no interest in marriage. When his mother reveals her plans to deed the family farm to the first son who marries, Levi has a plan to ensure that it isn't him: a pretend courtship with Sarah to nudge his competitive brother in her direction. Once Isaac is married, Levi can leave town to train racehorses--just as he wanted. So why does Sarah--with her vision of a peaceful, happy life on the land--make his heart gallop? Perhaps the answer lies in how sweetly surprising love can be.
