Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will Martha and Jaden get a shot at love, or is their relationship doomed to end before even begins? At the age of thirty-one, Martha Miller’s chances of finding a life mate are basically nil in her Amish community. That is, until she reunites with her one-time friend, bachelor Jaden Beachy, at her niece’s wedding. Maybe Der Herr hasn’t forgotten about her status as a single woman after all. Although they agree to exchange letters after the wedding, he remains emotionally aloof, and Martha is determined to find out why. Jaden Beachy didn't expect to see Martha Miller ever again after her family moved away to Indiana when the two of them were just scholars. Even at the tender age of eight, Jaden had been attracted to kind Martha. But Jaden carries a deep secret that he’s never shared with anybody—a secret that could send Martha fleeing to the hills. When Jaden’s older brother Josiah informs him that their school is in need of a teacher and invites him to come stay with him in Indiana, Jaden takes a leap of faith. Perhaps moving away can help him forget about his past troubles. But living in the next district over from Martha’s, along with their close family ties, will guarantee they’ll run into each other. Especially since Martha teaches at the school in her Amish community. Will Jaden dare share his secret with Martha? Or should he sever their relationship as soon as possible to save her from inevitable heartbreak? Read the page-turning book six in the bestselling Amish Country Brides series from USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Spredemann!

Book excerpt: Will Bailey and Timothy discover a love worth waiting for this Christmas? Returning home for the holidays is bittersweet for Bailey Miller. While she loves her mother and stepvatter’s family and wants to spend time with them, she knows she’ll inevitably run into Timothy Stoltzfoos—the man who betrayed her and broke her heart. Although Timothy’s available now, she’s not interested. At least, that’s what she tells her traitorous heart. She’s promised to Mark Petersheim—a man she doesn’t love nearly as much as she once loved Timothy. But he’s a decent man and will probably make a good husband. Timothy Stoltzfoos messed up big time when he chose MaryAnn Kinsinger over Bailey Miller. It has been four years since he heard she’d left their Amish community for the Englisch world to live with her vatter in New Jersey. But now she’s back and she’s Amish again—and engaged to be married to an Amish man in a nearby district. Timothy would give just about anything to have her back in his life—she never left his heart. He knows Bailey isn't keen on giving him a second chance, but Christmas is a time for miracles, isn’t it? The Giver is the heart-warming fifth book in the Amish Country Brides series by USA TODAY Bestselling Author Jennifer Spredemann. Read Timothy and Bailey's sweet love story today!

He has made a lot of mistakes in his life, but his number one regret is leaving his young daughter, Bailey, behind. After he receives a letter from Indiana, he decides it's time to begin righting some of the wrongs in his life, including reconciling with his daughter. But will she ever forgive him for abandoning her? Widow Elnora Schwartz has no intentions of remarrying after losing the love of her life. But when Josiah Beachy sweeps into town with a buggy-load of regret, her heart goes out to him. But would it be wise to trust her heart to a man who has lived most of his life as defector to the Amish life she cherishes? One thing Josiah wasn't counting on is meeting Nora, a pretty widow with two young girls. As he begins to fall for her, he is torn and must decide whether he will join the Amish church again or stay Englisch - and alone. Can love...and faith...bond them together?

Emily Miller loves tending her garden and roadside stand, but she admits her love life is dull. While she’s ridden home from singings with several young men from her community, none of them fulfills the image her mind’s eye conjures up. She wants a man who is not only kind and hardworking, but responsible and loves children. So, when shy widower Titus Troyer shows up at her roadside stand with his adorable kinner, something tugs at her heart. Titus Troyer made a fool out of himself when he asked Martha Miller to marry him, and he doesn’t intend to ever repeat that mistake. But when vibrant Emily Miller, Martha’s younger sister, meets his eye at her family’s roadside stand, he can’t deny his attraction. But would a pretty, and very available young woman like Emily even give a man like him a second thought? More importantly, can he summon the courage to find out? A sweet love story about finding love when you least expected it.
