A Christmas Haven
An Amish Christmas Romance
by Cindy Woodsmall and Erin Woodsmall
About the Book
Ivy placed the last of the pink-rose centerpieces on a crisp white tablecloth and paused to smell the fragrance of the soft petals.
I am a big fan of Cindy Woodsmall novels, and I especially love the ones she co-writes with her daughter-in-law, Erin. They are superb stories. So far, I am about half-way through the novella and I am enjoying it greatly.
This sweet novella releases on Tuesday, September 24, 2019. Check back for my full review plus your opportunity to win a copy of this story.

My first lines are from Undercover Twin by Heather Woodhaven
Audrey Clark adjusted her crossbody bag as she stepped out, under the cover of stars. The atmosphere matched her mood, dark and uncomfortable

I’m currently reading You Belong With Me by Tari Faris. I’m on chapter 17 so I’ll share that first line here: ” Almost three months ago, she’d sat here confident she could fix this town, and now she didn’t even think she could fix her own life.” I hope you have a great weekend!
