PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION
From bestselling authors of Amish Fiction come three sweet stories about new life, hope, and romance.
Bundles of Blessing by Amy Clipston
Lost in grief after the death of her husband, Kristina Byler gave up remarrying and found comfort and purpose in becoming a midwife. She is surprised when Aidan Smoker–her ex-boyfriend and the man she was sure she’d one day marry–moves back to the community after living in Ohio for the past eight years. They’re both certain there’s too much pain in their shared past for them to have a future, but they keep finding themselves drawn together. As Kristina helps other women bring children into the world, she starts to wonder if a family of her own might be possible after all.
A Midwife for Susie by Shelley Shepard Gray
Haunted by secret guilt after a tragic accident, Joanna Zimmerman is sure she’s left midwifery behind her. She keeps to herself, certain this is for the best. Her childhood friend Dwight Eicher knows Joanna hasn’t been herself lately, but every time he tries to talk to her about what’s wrong, she avoids his questions. When his sister, Susie, becomes pregnant, Joanna must decide if she can find the courage to return to the job she once felt so called to. Meanwhile, both Dwight and Joanna face romantic feelings that have the potential to change their friendship forever.
Christmas Cradles by Kelly Long (Also published in An Amish Christmas)
When Anna Stolis takes over for her aunt, the local midwife, Christmas night heats up with multiple deliveries, three strangers’ quilts, and unexpected help from the handsome and brooding Asa Lapp
My Review:
This book contains three novella-length stories by three talented Amish authors. I liked it that although each story was written by a different author in their own writing style, the reading is seamless from one story to the next. Each midwife’s story was heart-touching. It’s impossible for me to pick a favorite story among the three as there was something that I loved about each one. There’s a theme of faithfully trusting God with the future that links each story together. Readers that love Amish fiction will find that these authors write with authenticity about the Amish faith; and readers that enjoy faith-based fiction will find inspiration in these stories.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
