Jaime and C. J. Fitzpatrick began their married life as most couples do--in love and looking forward to a bright future together. But four years later they've drifted apart and are almost ready to call it quits.

Mattie Riehl was hoping to give her husband Sol the Christmas gift they have both longed for--news that a baby was on the way. But as usual, she is disappointed. The holidays bring an acute awareness to Mattie that her dream of a big family isn't likely to become a reality.

Then a winter storm raging outside blows the Fitzpatricks into the Riehl home--and into a much slower pace of life. Can these two couples from different worlds help each other understand the true meaning of love this Christmas?

With her trademark plot twists and attention to detail, Suzanne Woods Fisher offers readers a beautiful Christmas story of love, forgiveness, and what truly matters in life.

I loved this book from the start! I often forget how much I love Amish reads, and then I will read one and wonder why I don't read them more often. This one was no exception. From the beginning, I was captivated by the two families and their stark differences. Yet despite them, they are brought together by Danny.

Danny is part of the Amish family, but is so naturally kind that he quickly befriends Jaime. They all bond together as one blended group, and learn to accept each others differences the way they are. If you love Amish fiction, pick this one up!


I received this book free for review from a LitFuse blog tour. I was not required to give a positive review, simply an honest one.
