Can Christmas bring two hurting souls together and spark a new love?

Christmas is Anne Eicher’s favorite time of year. She not only loves the joy of the season, but the baking and festivities around the holiday as well. But facing another year alone isn’t what she had planned.

So, when she receives a mysterious letter from a secret admirer, she must decide if she’s willing to take another chance at love.

Deep inside Andy's soul burns an admiration for Anne Eicher. He’s never known anyone like her. She’s exactly what his heart craves—someone whose love is genuine, faithful, and true. Unlike her sister who dropped him the instant Glen Kauffman returned to the community.

Andy Stoltzfus doesn’t think he stands a chance with the eldest Eicher sister, though, so he devises a plan to win her heart—and her hand.

But what happens when his plan backfires?

A sweet faith-filled holiday story that will bring a smile to your face and joy to your heart!

Loved the way Jennifer Spredemann took two people, both having been badly hurt, and brought them together in such a fun and unique way. A delightful novella that you won’t be able to put down once you start as you pull for a happily ever after. A great Christmas story that would be an exceptional read any time of the year. FIVE STAR reading!I receive a copy of this book with no requirement or expectations of a review. All opinions are completely my own.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS

The Amish life is always so interesting to me, so reading a Amish Christmas Courtship by Jennifer Spredemann was an easy choice and once I began reading I loved it and didn’t want to put it down. Anne Eicher loves everything about Christmas but she is alone, after her betrothed left the community to become English. Andy Stolzfus craves Annie, she is the faithful and true heart that he needs and wants. She gets letters from a secret admirer and then her ex comes back. What will Anne do, read this to find out!!!!

I truly loved this read and the only thing is I wish it was longer because I didn’t want the world of Anne and Andy to end. I highly recommend this read to anyone looking for a sweet, fun, warm holiday read. Truly is book to enjoy on a winters day with a cup of tea and a cozy blanket.

Delightful Book

Jennifer Spredemann’s new book, A Christmas Amish Courtship Book 3 in her Very popular Amish Courtship series, is simply delightful.

Jennifer has a delightful way of developing interesting characters and her own special way of weaving a totally unexpected, interesting storyline. This is the third book following Sammy’s family in another chapter of their pursuit of love and family. You will just love Anne and Andy.

The story is well written and the characters are so strong and realistic you feel you are a part of the story. We watch as each characters grows and they becomes and intricate part of the story. She writes in such a way that the story moves quickly, but there is enough information kept out of the reader’s reach so that the events of the next page-turn can not be predicted.

I highly recommend this 5-star book.

I was given and ARC by the author, but was not required to give a positive review. Opinions are strictly my own.

Amish Love

I absolutely fell in love with Anne. She was given a big responsibility at a young age. Although she had been courting someone for many years she ended up with a broken heart.

Because her sister broke Andy’s heart around the same time Anne’s heart got broken. This opened a door for them down the road. Andy wants to secretly sweep Anne off her feet. Will her sister and his cousin be okay with the two of them ending up together?

Andy is truly a romantic and I love how their love story played out. Such a short, sweet story that will make you believe in love again!
