ABOUT AN AMISH COUNTRY CHRISTMAS
“The Christmas Visitors”: For spirited Martha Coblentz and her twin
Mary, the snow has delivered the perfect holiday and birthday present to
their door—handsome brothers Nate and Bram Kanagy. But when unforeseen
trouble interrupts their season’s good cheer, it will take unexpected
intervention—and sudden understanding—to give all four the blessing of a
lifetime.
“Kissing the Bishop”: As the New Year’s first snow settles, Nazareth
Hooley and her sister Jerusalem are given a heaven-sent chance to help
newly widowed Tom Hostetler tend his home. But when her hope that she
and Tom can build on the caring between them seems a dream forever out
of reach, Nazareth discovers that faith and love can make any miracle
possible.
Purchase at:
Charlotte Hubbard and written another fantastic Amish book. Yes, I'm a little behind times, but better late than never. However, it's a book worth shouting about and reading even after Christmas. An Amish Country Christmas is actually a two-in-one book, so you get two wonderful books written by this awesome author in one. This book brings together characters from two of Hubbard's already published series. As usual with every turn of the page there are new twists and turns in the story. You won't be disappointed if you pick up a copy of An Amish Christmas an read it. Actually, it's a book that will keep you turning the pages.
You may read the first chapter
here if you wish.
ABOUT CHARLOTTE HUBBARD
I’ve
called Missouri home for most of my life, and most folks don’t realize
that several Old Older Amish and Mennonite communities make their home
here, as well. The rolling pastureland, woods, and small towns along
county highways make a wonderful setting for Plain populations—and for
stories about them, too! While Jamesport, Missouri is the largest Old
Order Amish settlement west of the Mississippi River, other communities
have also found the affordable farm land ideal for raising crops,
livestock, and running the small family-owned businesses that support
their families.
Like my heroine, Miriam Lantz, of my Seasons of the Heart series, I
love to feed people—to share my hearth and home. I bake bread and
goodies and I love to try new recipes. I put up jars and jars of green
beans, tomatoes, beets and other veggies every summer. All my adult
life, I’ve been a deacon, a dedicated church musician and choir member,
and we hosted a potluck group in our home for more than twenty years.
Like Abby Lambright, heroine of my Home at Cedar Creek series, I
consider it a personal mission to be a listener and a peacemaker—to heal
broken hearts and wounded souls. Faith and family, farming and
frugality matter to me: like Abby, I sew and enjoy fabric arts—I made my
wedding dress and the one Mom wore, too, when I married into an Iowa
farm family more than thirty-five years ago! When I’m not writing, I
crochet and sew, and I love to travel.
I recently moved to Minnesota when my husband got a wonderful new
job, so now he and I and our border collie, Ramona, are exploring our
new state and making new friends.
