Autumn is the seasonal backdrop of these four Amish-themed novellas. In Wiseman's "Under the Harvest Moon," widow Naomi Dienner is busy raising her children and has no time for new love. Yet romance is in the air when hired hand Brock Mulligan arrives to help with the harvest—and to protect Naomi from lurking danger. In Amy Clipston's "Love and Buggy Rides," coworkers Janie Lantz and Jonathan Stoltfuz are brought together through tragedy. Could their friendship turn into something more? Increased sales values at an auction house lead to theft and a mystery to solve—and possibly love—for the protagonists of Vannetta Chapman's "Mischief in the Autumn Air." And "A Quiet Love" by Kathleen Fuller showcases a shy bookworm and reserved farmer who are both lonely, but their community has much to say about their budding relationship, maybe to its detriment.
VERDICT These stories, from authors well known for their Amish romances, are a great way to introduce new readers to this beloved genre.
