Abigail is outraged by Amish well-driller, Eli Probst's flippant attitude. Living with her parents after her husband died several years ago, she knows she needs to marry again and move on with her life, but she hasn't done this yet. Although Eli is flirty and unreliable, she can't deny that she enjoys his secretive kisses. When widowed Eli asks her to pretend to be engaged to him to get his father off his back, she agrees without asking herself why.

Eli has looked high and low without finding another woman he wants to marry, but he thinks high-spirited Abby may be the one for him. He asks her to engage in the engagement pretense to get her off the market until he can convince her to truly marry him.

Unbeknownst to him, Abigail believes herself to be barren. She had no children with her first husband after five years of marriage. Can these two find answers to their challenges in each others' arms?
