Book Review: An Amish Christmas Star by Shelley Shepard Gray, Charlotte Hubbard, & Rosalind Lauer


A beautiful Christmas story collection centered around community, faith, and love is what you will find in An Amish Christmas Star by Shelley Shepard Gray, Charlotte Hubbard, & Rosalind Lauer.

"Buggies, Trains, and Automobiles" by Shelley Shepard Gray finds two strangers, John Miller and Ellie Coblentz, sharing a ride and discovering the Lord's plan for them. 

"Star of Wonder" by Charlotte Hubbard sees Raymond Overholt coming to Promise Lodge to sell his painted signs with stars and Christmas messages. Mennonite Lizzie Zehr is intrigued by them and Raymond, but any courtship between them would face opposition from the bishop of Raymond's Old Order community, unless he has a change of heart.

"Starlight Everlasting" by Rosalind Lauer finds newlyweds Rachel and Luke Coblentz eagerly awaiting their first Christmas together. When Luke's factory job threatens to keep them apart, they must have faith in the gift of a joyful ending.

What a fabulous seasonal story collection for fans of Amish romance, inspirational romance, Amish fiction, and Mennonite fiction. Tied together by being set during the Christmas season, these delightful stories will touch your heart and make you yearn for more from these talented authors. Each author created a unique story that displayed their knowledge of the genre and the importance of a faithful community.

Moving stories during the Christmas season abound in An Amish Christmas Star. Highly recommended!
