But when her parents pressure her to agree to an advantageous match, she fears she'll be trapped in a loveless marriage.

When Grace's love for books leads him to Charlotte's bookshop, Richard is drawn to Charlotte's sweet spirit. But with endless problems on the horizon, will God's grace enable them to accept the hardship with dignity and strength?
