In A Christmas Surprise,
the Kauffman family leaves behind their familiar Amish community in
Lancaster County to start over on a neglected farm in northern New
England. While Eli and Anna embrace the adventure, their teenage
daughter Mandy struggles with homesickness, lost friendships, and an
uncertain future.
As the family restores an old farmhouse and
adjusts to a simpler, harsher way of life, unexpected friendships begin
to bloom with the local townspeople—and perhaps even romance. Filled
with cozy family moments, horse-drawn buggies, snowy landscapes,
renovation dreams, and the warmth of Christmas hope, this uplifting
Amish romance captures the challenges and joys of starting over.
Perfect
for readers who love Amish fiction, clean romance, inspirational
women’s fiction, and heartfelt holiday stories set in small-town
communities.

My Review
This was a story of some sweet romance, but it was also the story of Amish pioneers.
Someone has to do it, but to be the first to leave the security of their community, and we join the Kauffman's as they leave Lancaster PA and travel to and homestead in Maine.
This is a story that will warm your heart with the new community being there for them when disaster strikes.
What will teens do to find friends, there are no Amish? Then the remodeling of the big home begins, and we are there. Maine winters! Not quite the same as Pennsylvania!
I loved how things work out here, and big twists and surprises!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Skyhorse Publishing, and was not required to give a positive review.
