Between You and Me

 Susan Wiggs wrote Between You And Me, a novel about the relationship between Dr. Reese Powell and Caleb Stoltz. Reese is a medical student working in an emergency room when she meets Caleb. Caleb comes to the hospital in a helicopter when his nephew, Jonah, suffers a terrible farm accident in which he looses his left arm. Jonah is Amish. Caleb grew up in the Amish community but decided to leave. He only came back when his brother and sister-in-law were murdered in order to raise their two children, Jonah and Hannah, in the Amish faith as his brother requested. Reese assists Caleb and Jonah because, as the author mentions way too many times, Caleb is a tall, blond, hunk of a guy. Although I can't say I loved this book, the relationship between two people who come from very different world was interesting partly because they both had manipulative and controlling parents.
