Rachel J. Good grew up near Lancaster
County, Pennsylvania, the setting for many of her Amish novels. Striving
to be as authentic as possible, she spends time with her Amish friends,
doing chores on their farm and attending family events.
Rachel
loves to travel and visit many different Amish communities. In searching
for the best Amish soft pretzels, she's visited many Amish markets,
auctions, and mud sales. Because of her love of Amish food, she tries to
include recipes in her books as often as possible. When she's not
traveling, she spends time with family and writing.
In addition
to her Amish novels, she's written more than 40 books, including
children's educational books, adult nonfiction, and fiction for children
and teens under several pen names. To find out more about Rachel and
her books, you can sign up for her newsletter: http://bit.ly/1qwci4Q

Loree Lough had 122 award-winning books
(nearly 13 million copies in circulation), hundreds of industry awards, 7
book-to-movie options), 68 published short stories, and 2,500+
nonfiction articles in print. And in August of 2019, Loree celebrated 25
years as a published author!
An oft-invited guest of writers'
organizations, colleges and universities, corporate and government
agencies in the U.S. and abroad, Loree loves sharing
learned-the-hard-way lessons about the craft and the industry.
Once
upon a time, Loree (literally) sang for her supper, performing alone
and "opening" for the likes of Tom Jones, Dottie West, The Gatlin
Brothers, and more. Though she refuses to share the actual year when she
traded her Yamaha 6-string for a wedding ring, she IS willing to admit
that, every now and then, she blows the dust off her six-string to croon
a tune or two. But mostly, she just writes (and writes).
Loree
and her husband split their time between a home in the Baltimore suburbs
and a cabin in the Allegheny Mountains, where she continues to hone her
"identify the critter tracks" skills. Her favorite pastime? Spending
long, leisurely hours with her grandchildren...all seven of them!
She
loves hearing from her readers, and answers every letter, personally.

My Review
Three different stories by three different authors, each presenting different reads that feature Rachel's Porch Bakery.
The
first two novella's take place mainly in the bakery, and embrace many
of the same characters, delightful! The third visits Rachel's but is a
story of a woman who loves teaching, but whose home life is very hard.
You will be quickly page turning and looking for answers as these tales unfold, and wanting more as the last page is turned!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.
