My Review:
Christmas Grace is the first book that I have read by Mindy Steele. The two things that drew me to this book were its Christmas theme and the fact that it is about Amish people. I also loved the cover, but that was minor compared to the other two! I would read more by this author.
Happy Friday! I hope you have a great day and a relaxing weekend

My Review:
A Class for Laurel by Amy Clipston
Laurel is excited when she gets to Colorado. It was her first train ride and she was thrilled with all the new sights she had seen as she traveled from Pennsylvania. She is looking forward to being a teacher and the opportunity to teach in a new community.
Series: Hearts of Lancaster County #2
Author: Barbara Cameron
Publisher: Forever
Genre: Amish, Christian Fiction, Romance
My Review:
While this is the second book in the Hearts of Lancaster County series, it can be read as a stand-alone novel. I would recommend going back and reading the first book, The Amish Midwife's Hope, before beginning this one. I did not read the first book and feel that I would have enjoyed this story, even more, had I read it first.

Series: Surprised by Love #2
Author: Rachel J. Good
Publisher: Zebra Books
Genre: Amish, Christian Fiction, Romance
My review:
While this is the second book in the series it can easily be read as a stand-alone. There are a few characters who make appearances from the first book, but there is not so much background that you are lost.

My Review:
I enjoyed this story. Cassie does not know what she is getting herself into when she decides to move in with the Keim's and help with their grandchildren. Cassie is a joy and a delight. She radiates energy and possesses a genuine love of her life. She is enthusiastic in all that she does and has many admirable qualities.
Happy Friday! I hope you are having a great day and looking forward to a relaxing weekend!

Title: The Amish Quiltmaker's Unruly In-Laws
Series: The Amish Quiltmaker #2
Author: Jennifer Beckstrand
Publisher: Zebra Books
Genre: Christian Fiction/Amish
My Review:
While this is the second book in the series, it can also be read as a stand-alone. However, to understand a bit more about a few of the characters, it would be great to start with the first book.
Linda Eicher is not afraid to speak her mind and often comes across as rude and unfeeling. She is feisty, athletic, and does quite a few sports your typical Amish young lady would not do.

Title: Amish Country Threats
Series: The Infamous Amish #2
Author: Patricia Johns
Publisher: Kensington Books
Genre: Amish/Christian Romance/Christian Fiction
My Review:
This is the second book in The Infamous Amish and I would highly recommend reading the first book, The Preacher's Son, before beginning this one. While this could be read as a standalone novel, it would be best to understand the backstory of the characters by reading the first novel.
This is my first post for First Line Fridays and I am excited to be participating! First Line Friday is hosted by Hoarding Books.
Today for First Line Friday, I am sharing from The Preacher's Daughter, the second book in the Infamous Amish Series by Patricia Johns.
