This is the final book of the Sommerfeld Trilogy. Trina Muller, who was a secondary character in the first two books, has her own story featured in this one.
Trina is working in her mother's cafe, but she has a gift for working with and healing animals, and her dream is to become a veterinarian and
Graham Ortmann loves Trina, but he is indignant when she shares her plans of attending college. He feels she should be content to be a wife and mother, how can he marry a woman who won't follow the dictates of their Old Order fellowship?
Trina feels she can have it all; why would God give her the gift of healing sick and injured animals if he did not intend for her to use it? She must find a way to convince her family, Graham, and the fellowship to allow her to follow her heart.
I liked the character of Trina from the moment I "met" her in the first book of the series, and it was a nice wrap up of the series to end it with her story. Of the three books, this is probably the only one of the series that works as a stand alone story, though Beth and Marie, whose stories are told in the first two books, (Bygones, and Beginnings) do make a few appearances in this one.
