A Christmas Bride in Pinecraft: An Amish Brides of Pinecraft Christmas Novel (The Pinecraft Brides)

The last book in the Amish Brides of Pinecraft series was worth the wait. Manager of the Orange Blossom Inn, Beverly Overholt faces a challenge this holiday season. Inn owner Eric comes to help her, but his feelings are more than platonic. Beverly learns about Eric's past but even that is a good thing because it can help two local boys. Will Eric and Beverly admit their true feelings? Will this be a holiday to remember in Pinecraft? Shelley's characters feel like my friends and I was eager to catch up with them. Beverly has done a lot of maturing throughout the series and especially this book. I'm sad to be done with the series but the ending was great. I'm part of Shelley's group "The Buggy Bunch" and received a complimentary copy but I also purchased a copy.

I like, no, I LOVE ALL Amish stories and ca 95 % of all my reading the past many years were Amish novels. I will have just about the same review for all of them and as there are so many of them that I read it would be virtually impossible for me to take the time to review all of them separately. All I can say is: they are all good, clean stories and I enjoy every minute I have one of these books in my hand. I never find them boring as they all play against a different background and it is clear that the authors did all a good job of researching the Amish culture and traditions and every day life.The plots are all pretty good and where there is crime involved, it is hardly ever possible to know "who done it" until the very end.And it is SO good to read something without the ever so "popular" F- word in every second sentence. Romances are not always "above board", but the reader has to do some guess-work in these cases as there is no blow-by-blow boring description of sexual acts between couples.

A Christmas Bride in Pinecraft I really enjoyed the way Shelly has written about the brothers as far as what they do. Sometimes we are to quick to judge a child for the things they do. We should teach them to ask for help when they really need something. I thank she did a Good job of showing how people truly understand. I loved th part of the romance of Beverly and Eric she was so stand back and let see what happens. Loved the wedding also.

Always enjoy a Christmas story with a happy ending. Good characters. Some thoughtful points gently presented. Definitely a feel good story.

very happy with book

I had a hard time putting this down, I waited forever for this volume to be released! Shattered dreams, rebuilding with new memories, hard times and fears, lots of tears! Sharing of life bitter memories only to create new bonds, forever friends and new memories and love, sweet love!

This was a great ending to this fantastic series. All four books were great reads. A Christmas Bride in Pinecraft definitely didn't disappoint. I highly recommend this book and the whole series.

Here is another great author that is well worth reading. She makes the characters lively and interesting. You just want to sit down and read the entire book in one sitting.
