Shelley Shepard Gray's new holiday love story. Travel back
to Crittenden County for a heartwarming tale, and may your
holidays be filled with peace.
After a year of secrets and
scandal, will this Amish community finally find peace under
the bright promise of Christmas?
Beth Byler has a secret. Ever since she met Englischer Chris
Ellis while helping out at the Yellow Bird Inn, she can't
stop thinking about him. She knows a relationship could
never go anywhere—Chris was working undercover in Crittenden
County as a DEA agent. That meant he faced danger daily and
carried a gun, making him completely unsuitable for an Amish
woman like herself. But she knew he felt the attraction,
too. It was the reason he left so suddenly, promising never
to see her again.
Then, three days before Christmas, while Beth is taking care
of the inn, Chris returns. This time, he is bleeding and in
need of a place to hide. Against her better judgment, Beth
takes him in and tends to his wounds. She also promises to
keep his presence a secret. Before long, it becomes clear
that nothing between them has changed—a relationship is
inevitable. But are they ready to sacrifice everything for
this chance at love?
