An Unexpected Amish Christmas by Rachel J. Good is a lovely story. It is the third book in the Surprised by Love series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but I recommend reading all three of these enticing tales. I thought An Unexpected Amish Christmas was well-written with realistic, developed characters. I enjoyed getting to know Jeremiah Zook who was a dairy farmer prior to the accident. He lost his mother and now Jeremiah finds himself confined to a wheelchair. He is in rehab learning to reuse his hands and manage on his own once he is discharged. Keturah Esch is the oldest of four girls. The siblings lost both of their parents in accident. Keturah is now responsible for raising her three younger sisters, managing the house as well as the family�s pretzel stand at the Green Valley Farmer�s Market. Jeremiah read about Keturah and her sisters in the Die Botschaft. He decides to write Keturah a letter anonymously which brings her comfort. Then Jeremiah begins helping at the pretzel stand, but he does not share that he is the letter writer. Keturah struggles to do all the tasks her parents completed and welcomes Jeremiah�s help at the stand. Mrs. Vandenberg becomes involved which brings changes into all of their lives. I just love Mrs. Vandenberg. She is a force of nature. Mrs. Vandenberg adds humor and lightness to the story along with love. She is a generous woman who is a good example to us all. It was interesting learning about the making of soft pretzels. We also get to see the difficulties someone with disabilities or injuries experiences. The author definitely captured the struggles and pain. There is some Christmas scattered throughout the book. The market is having a Christmas Extravaganza and Gina is trying to get each booth owner to decorate. I enjoyed reading the latest Surprised by Love novel. An Unexpected Amish Christmas is a feel-good story that left me smiling.
