An Amish Christmas Wish

TWO COMPLETE STORIES IN ONE BOOK!

AN AMISH CHRISTMAS WISH:
Grace Fisher left the Amish community just after her baptism, frightened she'd missed out on exploring the English ways when her father had forbidden her to participate in her rumspringa.
When she returns to the community just days before Christmas, her father turns her away.
After running her car off the road in a blizzard, Grace ends up at the mercy of Ethan Bontrager, the man whose proposal she'd refused before leaving the community. Will the two of them be able to put the past behind them while trapped together in a blizzard?

THE CHRISTMAS PRAYER:
The day before school lets out for the holiday season, students are asked to submit a confidential and unselfish prayer to their teacher as an end-of-the-year assignment. When two of the students realize they share a common prayer, they join forces to make certain those prayers are answered. Will their shenanigans bring two broken families together, or will their efforts be in vain?

Amish Romance

Twenty-five-year-old LILLIAN STOLTZFUS is living in the shadow of her deceased brother. When her dad gives her the gift of land that would normally go to the eldest son, it includes a bakery he built as an offering to a suitor for her. No one wants marriage for Lillian more than she wants it for herself, but at twenty-five, she fears she will end up a spinster if Seth never returns her secret feelings for him.

Thirty-year-old SETH MILLER is loaded down with the responsibility of caring for an overbearing father. His loyalty to his father's farm has caused him to put his own needs on hold his entire adult life. Being secretly in love with Lillian for many months, he finds it difficult to speak to her because he lacks the confidence having never dated before.

Will the contents of an old spice box change everything for both of them? Or are they destined to admire each other from afar indefinitely?

New Years Resolutions

New Years Resolutions...NOT to be confused with my "do before your next birthday" list!


It seems to me that every year I tell myself I'm going to do this or that as a resolution...but I thought maybe this year I would say my new resolution is to end all resolutions!


I figured if I did this, I could save myself the self-disappointment of not completing whatever ridiculous goal I set for myself. Especially when the only goal I really want to achieve this year is to write even more books than I did last year.

It's the personal goals I set for myself that always get neglected...


Eating healthy always ends up in a sugar-binge!


Getting out more always ends with spending more time on the computer writing!


And working out more always ends with a few walks on the trail before I see a snake and decide the trail is too dangerous!


So I discovered a few solutions:
1.    Make sure I get at least 50% more fruits and veggies in my diet, and if the other half consists of sugary goo, then I feel like I've done it half right.
2.    I declared that going to Walmart or the grocery store counts as getting out!
3.    And finally...the treadmill is much safer than walking the trail, and if I walk on it more days of the week than half, then I'm satisfying the resolution.


You may not agree with my tactics, but if it works for me, then I'm okay with that!


Has anyone out there ever kept a resolution?
