Synopsis from Goodreads:
When an Amish girl visits Hawaii, she discovers her calling. . .
Mandy Frey has always longed to see Hawaii, so before joining the Amish church and considering marriage with her boyfriend Gideon, she convinces three friends to join her on a cruise of the Hawaiian Islands.
But when Mandy and one of her friends miss the cruise ship after a port of call on Kauai, how will they adjust and get back home? Captured by the enchanting scenery and culture in Hawaii, their vacation turns into an extended stay. Special friendships are soon made, but home, family, and Gideon await Mandy back in Indiana.
Will time away from the Amish community change Mandy’s view of the world, her faith, and true love? Does a Hawaiian quilt have the power to bring two hearts together?
Recommend: Sure. If you love Amish books, this one you would like. But, the girl visited Hawaii through a cruise ship. She didn’t get back on the boat and had to stay. Of course, there was a love interest while she had someone waiting for her back home.
