The Heart of Longing (Large Print Edition)

Torn between the choice of stepping out with her best friend or the handsome new man in the village, Betsie Hershberger must come to terms with her desires, and the nature of her own wild heart. Betsie Hershberger's Rumspringa is full of surprises. Kathy is getting married, Sarah is having her third child, and Miriam is thinking of leaving the nest but not in the conventional way. And no sooner does Betsie start her Rumspringa than Samuel King, her childhood friend, asks her to walk out with him. But a new man in the village has caught her eye, and she is sure she has caught his.
Must she sacrifice her heart's desire to keep her childhood friendship, or will she follow her heart and find happiness? The Heart of Belonging is the second book in the Amish Hearts series (the prequel to the Amish Sisters series). Each book is a stand-alone read, but to make the most of the series you should consider reading them in order.
