The Sound of Sleigh Bells<\/i> <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Beth Hertzler works alongside her beloved Aunt Lizzy in their dry goods store, and serving as contact of sorts between Amish craftsmen and Englischers who want to sell the Plain people\u2019s wares. But remorse and loneliness still echo in her heart everyday as she still wears the dark garb, indicating mourning of her fianc\u00e9. When she discovers a large, intricately carved scene of Amish children playing in the snow, something deep inside Beth\u2019s soul responds and she wants to help the unknown artist find homes for his work\u2013including Lizzy\u2019s dry goods store. But she doesn\u2019t know if her bishop will approve of the gorgeous carving or deem it idolatry.<\/p>\n

Lizzy sees the changes in her niece when Beth shows her the woodworking, and after Lizzy hunts down Jonah, the artist, she is all the more determined that Beth meets this man with the hands that create healing art. But it\u2019s not that simple\u2013will Lizzy\u2019s elaborate plan to reintroduce her niece to love work? Will Jonah be able to offer Beth the sleigh ride she\u2019s always dreamed of and a second chance at real love\u2013or just more heartbreak?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Sound of Sleigh Bells<\/span><\/i> is a heartwarming Christmas novella where lack and abundance inside an Amish community has power for good when it\u2019s tucked inside love. Romantic Times gave The Sound of Sleigh Bells<\/i> 4 \u00bd stars, saying ~ This is a wonderfully written, transformative story of two Amish families at Christmastime. It will bring sleigh-riding memories to life as readers vicariously join in this jolly and exciting holiday tradition.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
