Moti Bernstein has it all: a good family, a brilliant mind, a stellar reputation. And he isn’t bad looking either. When he begins to search for a wife, he has his pick of the best young women the Orthodox world has to offer. Unfortunately, he has already fallen head over heels for Nechama, who is smart, beautiful…and Sephardic. Within the strict conventions of his community, there is no way the two can be together. But Moti is not one to give up easily and, while his methods may be a bit unconventional, he is entirely committed to making his wishes come true.
