Love Means No Shame continues on after Love Means...Courage leaves off, although about twenty years later and with a grown-up Geoff - and it is his story.

Geoff comes home upon his father's death, finding himself a little lost for leaving his city life behind, but also found with the realization that it is on his family's farm where he finds himself truly grounded.  Shortly after his move back home, Geoff finds a young man in the barn on his sabbatical away from his Amish community.

Eli is not an average Amish young man, however, and the two find themselves in a relationship - maybe somewhat in spite of themselves.  Although Eli blossoms on the Laughton farm, will he be able to find the strength to stay when the "English" world proves to be quite cruel? Will Geoff be able to let Eli go if he doesn't?

A story of two divergent cultures colliding, Love Means No Shame is a wonderful tale of two people who are drifting in their own ways finding each other and seeing if they will be able to make their way together.  Love Means No Shame is also a story of acceptance - of differences, of each other, of yourself, and of how it is the differences that can forge the strongest bonds. Highly recommended.
