Sara loved Christmas. She loved the snow and she loved the special moments with the familye. This Christmas, spent with her daed's familye in another community, was to be the beginning of a different life for Sara. She met Zak Yoder while caroling on Christmas night; he was without his familye for Christmas, tending his familye's farm while they spend the holidays with familye elsewhere.
When the time came for Sara and her familye to return to their farm, it was a bitter sweet moment. The following year was a long one, of writing to one another and counting the days until their next meeting. But their next meeting was not to be as they anticipated; ruined by an overzealous would-be suitor who claimed Sara to be his, Zak left the two to be together.
Join these two Amish communities, as the families within strive to live and love as Gott intended. Will Christmas prove to be the catalyst for the joining of two very precious souls, or will the temptations and interference of others win out over true love?
Hannah successfully involves the reader in the worlds of two families, getting on as best they can with the love of community and the fellowship of the like-minded. Christmas is the time of love and understanding and generosity towards others, genuinely and beautifully shown in the pages of this story.
