A Class for Laurel: Adventurous Laurel Weaver leaves Pennsylvania to answer a newspaper ad for a teaching position in Colorado. She stays with handsome Glen Troyer's family, and they become close. However, she never intended to stay in Colorado, and his family doesn't approve of her outgoing ways.

Now, she's moving to Birch Creek to be a schoolteacher. Micah Wagler recently moved there as well to put the past behind him. As the community comes together to build a new schoolhouse, Priscilla and Micah are thrown together. They bond over their love of music, but soon it appears that Priscilla's dreams of fame just might be coming true. She has to give up something, and Micah worries that it will be their faith . . . and his heart.

Wendy's Twenty Reasons: Wendy Schwartz is used to people underestimating her, but she's sure she can be a great teacher. Unfortunately, it's a disaster not long after she starts, and soon her job is in jeopardy. To make matters more complicated, she worries that she's falling for the son of the older couple she's boarding with. Lewis Weaver knows he shouldn't have a romantic relationship with a tenant, but he can't help but be drawn to Wendy. When a dangerous ice storm traps Wendy in the schoolroom with her students, uncomfortable truths will have to be faced by the town that just might change the future for everyone.
