Description
Award-winning author Tricia Goyer writes an uplifting
novel of faith and family in her first Christmas novella.
Born in the midst of the hardships of The Great Depression, Rose grew up
in Berlin, Ohio, in the arms of a loving Amish family. But she is
overwhelmed by self-doubt when she learns the truth of her birth. She
was born Englisch and abandoned when her family moved West in search of
work.
Was she meant to be Amish or would she have been better off growing up
with her own kind---Englischers? And was her intended's gift of
discovering her birth family given out of love or fear?
Inspired by a true story, A Christmas Gift for Rose is a heartwarming
novella of sacrifice and deep love.
I haven't read very many books by Tricia Goyer but I have to say that if this one is any indication of how how good her writing is, I will be picking up more of her work in the future. I had a hard time putting this down every time I picked it up which is a sign of a well written book. There are secrets to be learned and lives to be figured out. And for these reasons, I hope it has a second book because I want to know more about how the lives of Jonathan and Rose turned out.
I gave this book 5 stars for sure!
