The Heart of Perseverance (Large Print Edition)

After three years of courtship, Betsie Hershberger wants to get married, but it doesn't look like Samuel King is going to propose anytime soon. Frustrated with his lack of commitment, Betsie is thinking of finding someone else. But when her father expresses the same wish and presents her with two suitors, Betsie is conflicted about what to do. Samuel wants to marry Betsie, but he has problems at home that need his attention. His mother is very ill and needs treatment that his father refuses to let her get. His earnings in the village aren't enough, and the job in town goes against the Amish way. With one thing going wrong after another, will Samuel and Betsie ever be able to reconcile their love and get married? The Heart of Perseverance is the third 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.
