(The Promise Glen Series)
October 8, 2019
by Marta Perry (Author)
National bestselling author Marta Perry captures the spirit of Christmas in this first novel of her all new series set in the quaint Amish community of Promise Glen.
After ten years spent keeping house and raising her younger siblings, Sarah Yoder returns home to Promise Glen determined to make a fresh start. Her new job with neighbor Noah Raber's furniture business seems promising—until she and the woodworker clash over everything from the best way to reach new costumers to how to raise his mischievous six-year-old twin boys.
Though Sarah longs for a home of her own, she fights the appeal of this ready-made family, resolved to maintain a professional distance. But when she and Noah both agree to help with the school's annual Christmas program, Sarah finds her heart touched by the motherless boys and Noah's quiet strength. Thrown together at work and at the school, their feelings continue to grow, and Sarah struggles to keep Noah at arms' length.
Loving Noah may seem impossible, but with faith, love, and a little help from their close-knit community, there may yet be a Christmas home for them both.

My thoughts: this was an interesting story of a strong-willed woman going to live with her cousin and his wife who are expecting their first baby. His wife's sisters are more strong-willed and she is needed to keep peace in the household,.. I enjoyed reading the story and getting to know the characters and seeing how they interact with one another. I also enjoyed the story of their nativity scene that they set up every Christmas. If you are looking for a good Christmas story based around the Amish you will want to read this book. I was given a copy free and all opinions are my own
