Meanwhile, the Kurtzes have wishes of their own—and with faith, they all may be gifted with twice the blessings . . . NEW BEGINNINGS * Rachel J. Good Still grieving the loss of her husband and unborn baby in an accident several months ago, Elizabeth Yoder is oblivious to her neighbor Luke Bontrager’s deepening affection for her. But while she bleakly faces Christmas alone, it’s Luke who reminds her it’s the season for giving.

After thoughtful prayer, the boys surprise their parents—as each husband and wife rediscovers their joy in Christmas and their love for each other. . .

The Christmas Not Wish by Shelley Shepard Gray
4.5 Gold Crowns
This is a sweet Christmas story with two endearing children who are placed in foster care with a young Amish couple. The couple are loving and kind, but when they learn they are expecting, the children overhear them talking and grow fearful. The plot touched my heart, and I enjoyed Ms. Shepard’s emotional tale a lot. This is not my first time reading one of her books, and it will not be the last!
New Beginnings by Rachel J. Good
4.5 Gold Crowns
I thoroughly enjoyed this charming Christmas Amish tale with engaging characters and a heartfelt plot. As a young Amish widow mourns the loss of her husband and unborn child, she dreads the upcoming holidays. The only bright moments in her life are spent with her neighbor. Luke Bontrager has a growing affection for the pretty widow. They become involved with a shelter for unwed mothers, and Elizabeth donates the bay items, she’d prepared for her child. My heart ached for Elizabeth as she attempts to move past her grief. Luke is perfect for her, and I truly wanted them to find their happy ending.
Twins Times Two by Loree Lough
4 Gold Crowns
There are lots of giggles and chuckles in this delightful Christmas tale as two sets of twin boys take on extra chores to earn horses for the Christmas gift. Their mothers are twins as well and very close. I enjoyed the antics of these mischievous duos. I was pleased that they discovered the true meaning of Christmas!
I enjoyed all three novellas in this lovely Christmas Anthology. I’m glad I found this on Net-Galley and requested it since Amish fiction is fast becoming one of my favorite genres. If you like Christmas tales with plenty of heart, then you will enjoy Amish Christmas Twins as much as I did. Happy reading!
