Marilyn's thoughts: Jesse and Gemma had a rocky past. Her return from Florida connected them
once again, but she had matured. When they became lost in a snowstorm survival

Shelter from the Storm is a romance centered on a marriage of convenience with characters that were realistic even with their flaws. Jesse’s involvement and attachment to Gemma brought moments of tears and applause. I do not want to give anything away, so I’ll just say this is a winsome Love Inspired Amish romance. I’ll look forward to the next book in North Country Amish which is set in a new Amish community in
