Library Journal Review

In Gray's novella "A Reunion in Pinecraft," miscommunication leads to romantic problems for Graham Holland when he visits the Kramer sisters and discovers that he has been writing to the wrong sibling. Can he appease one sister while winning the heart of the other? In Amy Clipston's "Summer Storms," Arianna's dreams of a perfect wedding day dissipate when an alcohol-fueled buggy race involving her brother Tobias and fiancé Jesse lands both men in trouble. Unrequited love and sibling rivalry are at the heart of Kathleen Fuller's "Lakeside Love." Esther has always adored Judah, who only has eyes for her sister Sarah. But Esther's affection for Judah creates problems for handsome Englisher Rhett, who is interested in her. Kelly Irvin rounds out this collection with "One Sweet Kiss." Martha Byler, whose hands are full caring for her large family, refuses to see Jacob King as husband material, but a kiss may change everything. VERDICT Four popular authors of Amish fiction are at their very best with these novellas. Perfect for a short summer literary escape. © Copyright 2017.
