One of the most beautiful love stories I have ever read. I loved the way Geoff and Eli's relationship develops over time. The way they gradually get to know one another; the courtship; the way they grapple with uncertainty over their growing feelings for each other and then the way they give in and passionately pursue each other. Even though Geoff was a bit of a former man whore, I thought both characters had a certain purity and tenderness that made you feel they were a perfect match. This one goes on my OMG shelf... it's that good. I just finished this book and its definitely one of those books you cant stop thinking about. At first I wasn't sure about it at all. Geoff is an average guy, not happy in his job, has a great friend Raine. Then his dad dies and leaves the family farm to him. He decides to move back from the city and take it on. Then Eli shows up. He's a young Amish man that is on Rumspringa and . spending the next year out in the world trying to decide if he'll stay with the Amish or move on. Their love of horses draws them both together. And soon their morning rides become more. They're both such good sweet men who deserve nothing but happiness. Of course it doesn't go quite that smoothly. The last third of the book was hearbreaking, so much happens that is just so sad and frustrating. The end is great. I am so glad there are more books in this series I cant wait to read more.
4.5 stars. I would like to hear more about Amish society since I know very little about them.
