Annie's Recipe by Lisa Jones Baker

She and Levi had been close when she was young.  Then his father got shunned and moved the family away.  It's been ten years since she saw him but she recognized him at once when she sees him at the wedding.  They have a lot to tell each other.  But her parents don't want her fraternizing with someone not of the faith.  She just can't stay away.

The author shared an ARC with me of this book to read for review for the Goddess Fish Blog Tour.  It has been published so you can grab a copy now.

This is an Amish tale and Annie is facing a personal crisis in her faith.  She believes in her faith but she truly loves Levi.  She wants to marry him but he's not of the faith.  He asks her to be a Mennonite but she won't do that.  He won't join her faith.  It looks like her love is hopeless.

She helps take care of Old Sam, who makes hope chests with a personal touch.  She talks to him, her mother, and a good girlfriend looking for advice.  When she get told by her mother to date others, she tries but she can only be his friend.  You can't give away your heart when it's already taken...

When Levi is almost killed in an accident saving his nephew, things come to head.  The story ends well despite all the roadblocks.  This is a tale of hope, faith and understanding.  All's well that ends well.
