To find her future,
she must risk a surprising love.
Feeling responsible for her younger sister’s life-scarring accident, Sarah Raber has dedicated herself to Anne’s care. Paying medical bills has left her no time to marry and have a home of her own, but at least she has the support of her best friend, Gideon Schrock. As they work alongside each other and Gideon helps the sisters find independence, Sarah realizes her feelings for him are deeper than she ever imagined. When an opportunity to start anew in a distant community arises, Sarah must decide if she’s brave enough to finally take a chance at happiness…for herself and Gideon.

Her Amish Christmas Wish
Oh how I loved the story of Gideon and Sarah. Sweet Christian romance full of Faith, Friends and Family. Gideon wanting to leave and carve out his own path, leaves no room for romance. Sarah feeling guilty over her little sisters accident and feels responsible, leaves her no time for romance. Can these two find common ground and let each other know their heart?

Encouraging story of faith
Sarah Raber thinks she will never marry since she feels responsible for her younger sister’s medical care resulting from an accident a few years earlier. Gideon Schrock keeps things to “friends only” with Sarah because she is his best friend’s sister. When Sarah begins working with Gideon at his brother’s shop, they both find their feelings getting deeper. Gideon has a chance to start his own business in a community far away. Can he help Sarah release her guilt to forgive herself and will she find the courage to leave her family to start a new life with Gideon?This is a story of self-forgiveness and redemption as well as overcoming fear of a new challenge. I found this to be an encouraging story of facing the path God chooses and stepping out in faith. I highly recommend this book if you enjoy inspiring Amish tales. I received an advance copy to read and all the opinions expressed are mine alone.

Gideon
I was so excited to read this book, I had loved Gideon in the last book.He was funny, kind and flirty.Maybe I had too high of expectations but Sarah was not my favorite.My heart broke for her sweet sister and I felt sorry for Sarah too but Sarah’s personality rubbed me the wrong way.I don’t know who I was hoping for but I just didn’t feel their chemistry….3.5

Wonderful Amish Romance
I’m glad McClay penned a story about Gideon Schrock after meeting him in earlier books in the Miller’s Creek series. This is a beautiful romance story of enabling someone to realize their potential despite what their lives had been. Sarah’s and Gideon’s friendship was sweet and truly showed they wanted the best for others. When Sarah started working at the Schrock’s Brothers Furniture store, Gideon was so understanding of her younger sister Anna. I loved Anna as a precious young child and how she grew after being understood and being insightful for her sister Sarah. The story unfolded with Gideon and Sarah facing challenges for their future with family situations, but trusting God to guide their paths they knew everything was possible. What’s going to happen when Gideon wants to move away?I received an early copy of this book from the author without any obligation to write a positive review. I have expressed my own thoughts.

Great Friends to More Story!
This was a beautiful friends to more story that brought the reader back to the close community of Miller’s Creek. But don’t worry if you haven’t read any of the other connected stories. You can easily enjoy this one on its own.I really felt for Gideon and Sarah as they navigated the potential change in their relationship. They had both put each other in the friend zone so long ago, that when feelings of more began to develop, it was difficult to know how to proceed.This story also dealt with continued guilt that Sarah had carried for many years and Gideon’s longing to move out west and establish a business for himself. The romantic tension between the two was just right and I loved seeing how things worked out for them.(4.5 stars)I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Forgiving Ourself
What a delightful book! I learned much about Amish courtships in Her Amish Christmas Wish. My heart went out to Sarah Raber for the guilt she felt for an accident that scarred her young sister, Anne. Forgiving ourselves is hard. I admired Gideon Schrock for his patience and wisdom with Anne and with Sarah. Gideon and Sarah learn to step out in faith for a future together. I received an early copy of Her Amish Christmas Wish from the author. I recommend this book to others. This is my honest opinion.
