Happy Book Release Day! Amish Sweethearts by Amy Clipston is out today along with The Hostess with the Ghostess by E.J. Copperman and The English Wife by Lauren Willig.
Amish Sweethearts by Amy Clipston
contains four Amish novellas. The book
includes Love and Buggy Rides (from An Amish Harvest), A Home for Lindsey,
Where the Heart Is, and Love Birds (from An Amish Market). In A Home for Lindsey we get the story of Lindsey Bedford from the Kauffman Amish
Bakery series. Matthew Glick is looking forward
to marrying Lindsey, but unexpected news ruins his plans. Feeling he is not good enough for Lindsey,
Matthew calls off the wedding and makes plans to move to Ohio. Lindsey is devastated and is determined to
find out what happened. Will Lindsey and
Matthew reconcile?
Where the Heart Is tells the
story of Tobias Smucker. Tobias has
returned home after leaving his home and community in the middle of the night. He wants to make things right with the
community and find a way to have a relationship with his father. Mariella Ebersol has been in love with Tobias
for many years, but Tobias is oblivious to her feelings. He develops a friendship with Mariella who
helps him find his place within the community.
They uncover a family secret that helps him understand his father and for
healing to begin.
Amish Sweethearts contains four
lovely stories (I summarized the new stories for you above) that each contain a
life lesson. They are well-written, easy
to read and engaging. Ms. Clipston
creates real characters that people will enjoy reading about and can relate
to. We get to follow the characters
through their journeys where they learn a lesson, get their life on track and
find love with their soul mate. Each of
the stories contain nice Christian messages such as having faith, following God’s
path, helping others, love, hope and forgiveness. The stories are set in Lancaster County and
Bird-in-the-Hand. I appreciated the
descriptions of the areas. Amish Sweethearts are Christian stories that can be treasured by readers from 12 to
102 (PG rated stories). Amish Sweethearts has four sweet, simple Amish stories
that will delight readers (especially fans of Amy Clipston). The four stories can be purchased together in Amish Sweethearts or separately.
Thank you for stopping by today. I am currently reading Court of Lions by Jane Johnson. I will be featuring The Hostess with the Ghostess by E.J. Copperman next time. Take care and Happy Reading!
