Eliza Yoder realizes she must consider Jebediah and his children’s needs above her own. Maybe it would better to step aside and allow another woman to take over. She’s even willing to help him find a new wife. After two years of mourning the loss of his wife, Jedediah realizes how much he needs Eliza...but is it too late?
