Wedding bells ring as “three worthy women embrace their communities’ values and find true love in these sweet novellas” (Publishers Weekly).
Under bright blue skies, hearts are joined, fulfilling sweet dreams, impossible wishes, and joyous new beginnings . . .
The Reluctant Groom
Jennifer Beckstrand
Spirited Suvie Newswenger has three marriage proposals, but none from the man she truly loves. No matter how lonely widower Aaron Beachy is, he seems determined to stay that way forever. Now, with help from his matchmaking great-grandparents, Suvie will do whatever it takes to rekindle Aaron’s hope, and spark happiness for a lifetime.
Joshua’s Bride
Molly Jebber
Madeline Lehman fears her fiancé’s family will never accept her because of her rebellious sister. She’s postponed her wedding to Joshua Stutzman until they see the truth. But when Maddie adopts her sister’s abandoned baby, can she and Joshua find a way to unite their families through forgiveness as well as love?
A Summer Wedding in Paradise
Amy Lillard
Reba Schmucker longs to be a bride. And she knows her mischievous nieces just wanted to help when they “chose” Abel Weaver for her. But he’s the last man in the world she’d ever marry. There’s no way her independence and his stubbornness could ever get along—unless a sudden crisis somehow leads to understanding . . . and love.
“Three entertaining novellas from three reliable authors.” —Fresh Fiction
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Three worthy women embrace their communities' values and find true love in these sweet novellas. Beckstrand (the Honeybee Sisters series) spices up "The Reluctant Groom" with humor as Suvie hangs her hopes on widower Aaron and convinces his mischievous great-grandmother Anna to assist in matchmaking. Anna, a notoriously awful cook, is delighted: "They'd mix like oil and vinegar, raisins and meatloaf, peanut butter and maple syrup." Stilted dialogue slows the pace in Jebber's (Two Suitors for Anna) "Joshua's Bride" ("I enjoy helping the doctor. To me, medical care is interesting. It's rewarding to take part in helping the injured or sick. I admire nurses"), but lovers of the genre will be satisfied as Madeline finds joy by staying true to her beliefs, refusing to marry Joshua against his parents' wishes, and praying for God's intervention. Sparks fly in Lillard's (Courting Emily) delightful "A Summer Wedding in Paradise," which features a spunky schoolteacher heroine, a handsome outsider with a runaway horse and "dastardly dimples," and three impish children determined to see their old-maid aunt married. Readers need not be fans of Amish romance to enjoy this final story's wit and chemistry.
