From the award-winning, New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestselling author comes the latest novel in her new inspirational romance series, featuring the independent King sisters, who run a historic Inn in the Northwest Pennsylvania Amish community of Shadow Lake Township. Will appeal to readers of wholesome and inspirational romance and fans of Charlotte Hubbard and Amy Lillard.
As the holidays approach, Colette King is eager for Matthew Mueller's return to Shadow Lake. Especially now that she has finally surrendered to the truth-that the friend she has known forever, the first man she ever kissed, is the one she longs to spend her life with. So when Mattie shows up at her sister's wedding with another woman on his arm, Colette's hopes are shattered. To heal her broken heart, she begins a quilt honoring her memories of Mattie. But every square she adds only makes her yearn for him more . . .
Matthew's new inheritance comes with a lot of responsibilities-including his late-uncle's deathbed request that he marry the woman who was his ward. But from the moment Mattie sees Colette again, he wishes he could escape his familial duty, even though doing so could bring scandal upon his mamm and daed. Will his desire to protect his parents cost him the life-and the love-he dreams of? Or can faith work a Christmas miracle that blesses all . . .
