Product Description

As medical students at the University of Utah, Andy and Louisa fall in love - but can a mainstream Mormon and a Fundamental polygamist overcome the cultural barriers between them? Both realize that their choices will not only affect their own lives, but will also have an impact on their family, friends, and even their communities. Fearing that the sacrifices required of them would be too great, they go their separate ways. Yet for Andy in Kentucky and Louisa in Utah, life does not go as they'd planned. While Andy is serving as a country doctor and trying to bury his pain, Louisa is coming to terms with the fact that all is not as perfect in her tight-knit community as she'd believed. As doctors, each will have to choose between keeping the peace in their communities or doing what they know is right. And someday, both will have to face their past and decide if they can make the sacrifice to be together.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful Read, March 4, 2008
Janet has written a marvelous book! It grabs your attention from the beginning and keeps you spellbound with the wit and humor as well as the emotion and everyday people in the book. You feel like you know the charachters and can relate to their lives. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I've ever read, May 14, 2008
This book is really not what I usually read. I don't remember how I stumbled onto it, but I'm so glad I did. I won't give the plot away, but here are a few details. It's a story of two families, two divergent paths of a religion with common roots (told with much respect and dignity for both), a story of love, and the best family story ever. It has lots of humor in it, the characters are memorable and come alive in your mind. If you like authors such as Nicholas Sparks, you'll love this one. It makes you feel good.

5.0 out of 5 stars A title that will catch your eye!, February 7, 2009
By Proud Mom of 3 (Southern Utah) - See all my reviews
When i seen this title i had to pick it up and find out more! I'm very happy that i did, because this is a wonderful read! You will catch your yourself laughing out loud as you read this. Andy and Louisa seem very real in many ways. They both are struggling with her coming from a polygamist back ground. Find answers that will show many how hard some will fight for true love.
Janet Kay Jensen should write more novels because she did a WONDERFUL job!
