Sara Brubaker was two years old when a German Baptist couple
adopted her. She has become a beautiful woman, and works as a secretary for
Alexander's. Now she's torn between wanting to live in the normal world of fun
and fashion, or joining the Dunkards to truly belong with her adoptive family.
Birdie Alexander thinks if she works at the family business hard enough and long
enough she will gain her father's love. Can she learn a thing or two from the
German Baptist secretary? Irene West is Birdie's lifelong Sunday school friend.
Irene misses having a father figure around, and is very boy crazy, which causes
Birdie to struggle with the friendship and Irene to struggle with life. Will
Birdie overcome her self-righteous nature before it's too late—for
Irene?

It is set in the early 1970's. Sharon gives great insight into the
