Their bees produce the most delectable honey in all of Wisconsin. And the three Christner girls are fondly known as The Honeybee Sisters throughout their peaceful Amish community--where their spirited sweetness is attracting any number of hopeful suitors. . .
Lively, determined, and independent, Poppy Christner isn't about to let some vandal keep making mischief on her family's farm. She's been outrunning boys and standing up for picked-on children ever since she was a girl--no matter how much her prideful, arrogant schoolmate Luke Bontranger insulted her. So Poppy certainly doesn't need his interference now, especially since he's made it plain he prefers demure, ladylike companions. In fact, if Luke doesn't stop helping her find the culprit--and growing humble and remorseful--she'll be forced to notice how handsome his change-of-heart is making him. And that could mean falling in love--maybe for a lifetime…

About The Author
Jennifer Beckstrand grew up with a steady diet of William Shakespeare and Jane Austen.
After all that literary immersion, I naturally decided to get a degree in
mathematics, which came in handy when one of my six children needed help with
homework. After my fourth daughter was born, I started writing. By juggling
diaper changes, soccer games, music lessons, laundry, and two more children, I
finished my first manuscript—a Western—in just under fourteen years.
I have always been fascinated by the Amish way of life and now write
Inspirational Amish Romance. I am drawn to the strong faith of the Plain people
and admire the importance they put on enduring family ties. I have visited and
studied Amish communities in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin where I met with a
bishop and a minister as well as several Amish mamms, dats, and children. It
has always impressed me at what salt-of-the-earth people they are. My
interactions with these kind people have been some of the most rewarding
experiences of my life. I have a dear Amish friend with whom I correspond in
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. She helps me keep my facts straight and gives
me inspiration for my stories.
My goal is to write uplifting, inspiring stories with happy endings and
hopeful messages. If my books make readers want to give themselves a big hug or
jump up and down for joy, I’ve done my job. I am a member of Romance Writers of
America and American Christian Fiction Writers and am represented by Mary Sue
Seymour of The Seymour Agency.
There are three Amish romances in the Forever After in Apple Lake
Series (Summerside/Guideposts). Kate’s Song, Rebecca’s Rose, and Miriam’s Quilt
are all now available.
I have six Amish Roamish buggymances in the works with Kensington
Books. The first and second books, Huckleberry Hill and Huckleberry Summer, are
now available in stores and online. The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill is set
in northern Wisconsin Amish country.
The series, The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill, is about an elderly
Amish couple who try to find suitable mates for their grandchildren. What could
be more fun than throwing two young people together to see if sparks ignite? No
one would ever suspect two octogenarian Amish folks of mischief.
Romantic Times gave Huckleberry Hill 4 1/2 stars and chose Huckleberry
Summer as a TOP PICK.
I have four daughters, two sons, three sons-in-law,
and two adorable grandsons. I live in the foothills of the Wasatch Front with
my husband and one son still left at home.
