Title: An Amish Country
Christmas
Author: Charlotte Hubbard, Naomi King
Review: I loved the second
story in this book. The 1st
story was cute about young romance, but the second story was about older
romance and had much deeper feelings. This
authors writing is enjoyable to read, the stories are sweet and fast
paced. I would recommend this authors
work to anyone who enjoys stories of families, love, and life.
With Christmas fast
approaching this book is a great way to feel the spirit of the season. I do love the fact that even after year and
years of life it is possible to still find love that makes you feel like a
teenager again.
Buy this book and step
into a place of quiet peace and simplicity.
Except for no electricity I think living in an Amish community might be a
wonderful break from the fast paced life we all lead out here in the world.
Tis the season for love, romance and the spirit of giving.

Why I Read this Title: I
enjoy this genre and author
Synopsis: In this charming
diptych, King (Naomi Weds a Good Man)—who also writes using the Hubbard
pseudonym (Winter of Wishes)—spins sweet tales of innocent love among the Amish
in two Missouri hamlets, Cedar Creek and Willow Ridge. The Christmas Visitors
is devoted to brothers Bram and Nate Kanagy and the identical twin sisters they
fall in love with, Martha and Mary Coblentz. As the brothers woo the sisters,
an out-of-towner threatens to dash their hopes. In Kissing the Bishop, Willow
Ridge sisters Jerusalem and Nazareth Hooley are snowed in at Tom Hostetler's
place with Vernon Gingerich from Cedar Creek. After Tom receives shocking news
about his estranged wife, will that open the door for two more couples to find
their happy endings? The devoted couples from the first tale also make a cameo
in the second. Mouthwatering recipes complete this sweet collection.
Author Information: Drawing
upon her experiences in Jamesport, the largest Old Order Amish community west
of the Mississippi, longtime Missourian Charlotte Hubbard (a.k.a. Naomi King)
writes of simpler times and a faith-based lifestyle in her new Seasons of the
Heart series. Like her heroine, Miriam Lantz, Charlotte considers it her
personal mission to feed people—to share hearth and home. Faith and family,
farming and food preservation are hallmarks of her lifestyle, and the
foundation of her earlier Angels of Mercy series. She’s a deacon, a dedicated
church musician and choir member, and when she’s not writing, she loves to try
new recipes, crochet, and sew. Charlotte now lives in Minnesota with her
husband and their border collie.
