Snow settles over the orchard, lanterns glow in the windows, and the whole valley leans toward Christmas. Irene longs for a love that keeps its word; Sebastian, the outsider with work-worn hands, keeps showing up where help is needed most. When winter weather tests more than the roads, Daniel steadies the peace at home and in the fields, drawing Amish and Englisch neighbors to work side by side.
Between hymn-singings and warm kitchens, Irene and Sebastian learn to speak plain: faith first, family honored, love done the right way. With Old Christmas drawing near and a simple promise made without fuss or finery, can two guarded hearts find a home in each other, and in a community learning to trust again?
A tender, candle-lit Amish Christmas romance about forgiveness, and a promise that lasts. Book Five in the Crossroads in Amish Country series.
