When Daisy sets her heart on Maynard, her parents are concerned that he isn't right for her. Honestly, they are correct, but Daisy can't see it their way.
Her parents tell her she is needed at her cousin's house to help plan her November wedding, but it's only May. Daisy reluctantly makes the trip to Marigold where her cousin lives. When no one is home (because they were away on vacation, she finds herself at their neighbor's house, a single Amish man whose parents are worried that he is the only one of his brothers who isn't married yet.
Perry believes he is one of the few people on earth who is meant to stay single all his life. So when he meets Daisy, who is persuaded that she is destined to marry Maynard, and Perry is sure he's meant to be alone, their meeting is odd at best.
It's only when Ferman, an old man with a bad hip, needs constant care for a time, that Daisy volunteers to take care of him while he stays at Perry's house. Of course, she and Perry must spend time with each other.
This is one of Kathleen Fuller's Amish stories, all of which I love. You know from the beginning that the two will find their way, but Fuller always throws in a few twists to keep the story interesting.
