So when God calls for a Matrimony, she's thrilled; she knows that Caleb, the boy she loves, will choose her to be his wife and they can finally start their life together.But when Miriam winds up with Aaron, she begins to question not only the rules that Daniel has set in place, but also what it is she believes in, and where she truly belongs. -- adapted from jacket
