Rebecca just knew Jesse Montgomery would join the Amish life in Apple Grove, Kansas, if she could just find him.  When she hears of his whereabouts, she decides to take off to Lawrence, Kansas to find him.  Leaving home at age 17 by herself probably wasn’t the smartest thing she ever did, but finding Jesse was worth any trouble she might face.

Little did she realize that trouble would be time in a jail cell for disturbing the peace.  The women, all of whom are marching for temperance, help Rebecca.  But her ninety day sentence may just get the best of Sheriff Colin Maddox.  Colin only has a few more weeks before the new sheriff arrives and he is free to pursue his calling of becoming a minister.  But with a woman in his jail cell and wanted men being sighted in town, that few weeks seems like an eternity.  I actually read A Plain and Simple Heart from Sunflower eLibrary on my tablet, but it is available in hard copy.  Highly recommended to those that enjoy this genre!
