Sarah flees an unfulfilling life in Montana to volunteer at a spiritual retreat in Scotland. But Braemar House seems more religious cult than safe haven. Not only is she expected to plant thousands of trees, look after flocks of poultry, and chase truant sheep, there are toilets to clean, dishes to wash, and firewood to chop. Can Sarah navigate contrasting spiritual beliefs under sometimes maddening circumstances to find her heart’s longing? God, help her!This engaging memoir chronicles two years in the life of a woman who left the country in her mid-30s to find herself. Falling in love with the Scottish countryside may keep her rooted to the spiritual retreat center where she lives, but one needs more than scenery to fix a broken spirit. Among the backdrop of relentless cold and rain, she navigates peculiar rituals and the challenges of communal living with people from all over the world. Thorny romance blossoms, and Sarah must overcome old beliefs and surrender to the knowledge the nothing and everything is as it seems.
