In the second book of Mary Ellis' "New Beginnings" series, "Love Comes to Paradise" is a story of fresh starts and faith in God’s and perfect plan. Believing herself to be a woman in love, Nora King devotedly follows Elam Detweiler from the ultraconservative Amish district of Harmony, Maine all the way to the town of Paradise, Missouri.

But as time passes, Nora begins to question her motives: does she love the man, or is she besotted with the independence and freethinking life he represents? Finding work and a new life in her unfamiliar surroundings, Nora still can't find her way into Elam's Englisch-leaning heart; who prefers to spend his time in drink and the company of other women.

An unexpected arrival from Nora’s home town of Harmony, in the person of Lewis Miller, seems to offer all that Nora what ever wanted - a lifetime of unconditional love. Despite his apparent coolness, Elam is outraged that Nora should now lean her affections toward Lewis and sows seeds of discord, slandering Nora’s good name. When a tornado rips through Paradise it seems to prophecy the emotional storms about to sweep through Nora’s life. Will Nora find the love she so dearly desires or will Elam's thoughtless choices ruin her reputation beyond repair?
