This is an extremely moving story. Such talent and originality shown by this author. I felt like I was there, back in Civil War days Ohio. Each character is so well-written– whether it be the hero, the misfit Amish lady who takes care of a critically ill woman, or the young daughter struggling to come […]
This was a really good story. As we read this one, we learn about the experiences of a newly-tapped Amish deacon. This particular character was not too far along in life from his years as a delinquent. His little wife had also come fairly recently out of the foster care system. Their names are Izzy […]

For example, in this book, readers learn more about the differences between Amish and Mennonite, and how the Amish […]
I received this from a publisher who hoped for a review…here it is: The first story/novella in this collection is worth the entire purchase price (if you want to buy it ;). Beth Wiseman is the author of the first story in the book. The title is “Winter Kisses”. Now before you judge a story […]
