What really makes a family?

Cancer-stricken Laura Mayfield-Bennett's dying wish is to be reunited with the child she never knew. But her daughter, Katie Lapp, is part of the Amish order.

On the eve of her wedding to a handsome Amish widower, Katie makes the shocking discovery that threatens to unravel the only life she's ever known. Why would Katie's mother, a simple Amishwoman who embraces the Old Ways, keep a beautiful satin baby dress in a world of woolen cape dresses? And why is an "Englisher" woman searching for Katie?

The answer sends Katie on a painful quest to uncover a secret past that alienates her from her community before she can find healing.
