I requested a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley because I never want to miss a chance to visit Jennifer Beckstrand's fabulous characters, Anna and Felty Helmuth. While they weren't in this one very much, it was enough, and I enjoyed reading another hilarious result of Anna's crazy matchmaking attempts. I also really enjoyed learning about the idea of Amish circle letters from this collection. I think it's such a cool idea, and it was a very clever way for these authors to connect these three novellas.

THE AMISH CHRISTMAS LETTERS is a sweet, clean read of three Amish novellas.Sarah Price's story is the only one with a faith message. The only author I had read before was Beckstrand, but my favorite was by Patricia Davids. It stood out.

If you like Amish romance novellas, you will love this Christmas collection.

i was given a netgalley copy free. All opinions are my own.

3 Delightful stories by 3 fantastic authors who bring Christmas joy, humor, and unexpected love with the help of the innocents of children. A must read for those who love Christmas and Amish Fiction.

I loved this book and the way it was written. It has inspired myslef and two friends to try and write circular letters. The characters were so well written and the way the letters were written was great. I would love to read more from this author.
I would recommend this book

In this collection there are three cousins have a circle letter going around between them as they are scattered across the country. Each cousin adds to the circle letter after reading what the other two cousins have written. The cousins have a friendly matchmaking competition going on amongst them. However will they matchmaking competition be turned onto themselves this time?
Readers are going to have to read the collection to find out what happens!


Each author wrote about a different cousin in a novella-a short story- and a few of other characters make a cross reference in the other novellas. Exchanged letters and storytelling make up the storyline for each novella.

I loved this novella collection by these three authors. This writing style hasn't been done in before in a novella collection; don't let that discourage you from reading this collection because the exchanged letters and storytelling make for an easy reading.

Three lovely Amish novellas about love! First it’s a comical matchmaking rivalry that backfires when one of the matchmakers falls for her client. The second novella features a child who helps an ill man recover from a stroke, while the third is a hilarious tale of a pack of devilish children whose nanny falls for their disapproving single onkel. I laughed until I cried when one of the children puts his brother’s flame retardant jammies in the oven to see if they catch fire, chasing everyone out of the house from the smoke. All three stories are absolutely delightful! I read a complimentary copy of this book provided by Kensington-Christian Books through NetGalley and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.

The Amish Christmas Letters by Patricia Davids, Sarah Price and Jennifer Beckstrand contains three intertwined Amish stories. Marybeth’s Circle Letter by Patricia Davids takes us to Sugarcreek, Ohio in late November. Marybeth Martin and her cousin, Wilma Martin have a matchmaking contest every year for the last ten years. The loser of the contest must host Great Aunt Ingrid for her annual two week Christmas visit. Marybeth has until Christmas Eve to make a match and win the contest. She has decided to find a wife for newcomer, Josiah Weaver, a widower with a four year old daughter, Simone. Unfortunately, Josiah is only interested in a caregiver for his daughter and not a wife. Will Marybeth win her contest or get a great gift for Christmas?

Love Delivered by Sarah Price which takes readers to Shipshewana, Indiana. Katie Mae Kauffman has been caring for her ill father for the last eighteen months, but she cannot handle the farm as well. Nathanial Miller is a widower with four children and is losing his farm to the bank. Bishop Brenneman has come up with the perfect solution. Katie Mae and her father will occupy the Dawdi Haus while Nathanial and his brood move into the farmhouse and work the farm. Katie Mae’s peaceful life is soon full of noise and disruptions, but she notices that her father loves seeing the farm full of life and spending time with Nathanial’s daughter, Becky. The seeds have been sown, but will they blossom into love?

Sealed with a Kiss by Jennifer Beckstrand sends readers to Greenwood, Wisconsin. Carolyn Yutzy is currently caring for Abraham and Mary’s large brood of seven children while they manage their popular cookie shop. Amid chaos, Abraham’s brother, Aaron arrives who is quick to criticize Carolyn. The pair need to find a way to work together and help the children who desperately miss their parents. Anna Helmuth is hoping her latest matchmaking efforts will results in a marriage between this unlikely pair. Christmas is a time for miracles.

The Amish Christmas Letters contains three heartwarming and entertaining stories. I found them to be well-written and engaging. My favorite story is Sealed with a Kiss by Jennifer Beckstrand. This humorous tale will have you giggling, and Anna’s famous potholders make an appearance. All three stories start out with a circle letter as each cousin updates the others on what is happening in their lives. It is a unique form of communication in this digital age, but a wonderful way to write one letter to multiple people. I am giving The Amish Christmas Letters 4 out of 5 stars. All three stories have romance, humor and holiday charm. Cuddle up in a chair with a warm blanket and read the three uplifting stories The Amish Christmas Letters.

The Amish communication system is great. I had not thought about circle letters until this book. 3 cousins who are all unmarried Marybeth, Katie Mae and Carolyn. Each is put in a position of meeting a man who may frustrate them but eventually turns into something more. They are all faced with challenges that they didn't think they needed someone. The Men all will find they have great women. At the end of each Novella they update the letters with all the current events of each woman. I have a large family and this makes me want to do this with my grandchildren just for the experience of teaching them to write letters. Thank you ladies for such a sweet book.

Three single Amish women who happily find unexpected love in three different situations. A very pleasant and fast moving read. Enjoyable and positive stories that leave the reader feeling good. Definitely recommend.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for a review copy. This is my honest opinion.

I cannot get this book to open from NetGalley, so I won’t be able to review this book. If anyone from the publishing company can help me with this, I’d love to read and review this! I’m giving it four starts just because of the great authors.

This is a sweet Christmas collection from three talented authors. The stories start with a letter to a member of Marybeth's Circle letter group telling the others of the latest events. The letters make the rounds among all those on the list.

The stories are romances and the romances are fun to read. There are times to laugh and the letters are encouraging to each other as the three stories are not separate but are of each of the writing circle recipients.

I really enjoyed the stories and they all seemed to have enough length to be able to enjoy each story fully.

I recommend this book. I really liked all three stories!

I received an ebook copy from NetGalley. All thoughts are my own.

I really enjoyed this Christmas trio of letters. In the Amish Communities, phones are used sparingly and thus letter writing is very important. I love the idea of circle letters, where each writer adds their own letter to the ones in the envelope and sends them in. These letters are from three cousins who all share the news of a new romance. All three of these stories involve a widower and children. One is only looking for a nanny, not romance; the second has had to sell his farm and rent from a young woman and her father who has suffered a stroke, and have moved into the Daddy house at the back of the property; and the last is a young woman who is conned into traveling to a neighbouring community to babysit 7 children while their parents run a growing cookie business, all the while being set up with their uncle.

I enjoyed these novellas a lot. The characters were developed as much as possible in a short story and they were all very likable, even the rather rude uncle in the last story. It was wonderful seeing the feelings develop even while some of the characters or their family were trying to deny they were there. The children were all adorable, even though some were a bit incorrigible. Overall a wonderful read around Christmas time. All three authors did a wonderful job of merging these letters together to form a great book. The publisher, Kensington Books, generously provided me with a copy of this book to read. The rating, opinions and ideas are my own.

In this collection of three stories from three wonderful writers of the Amish romance genre we meet Marybeth Martin in Marybeth's Circle Letter. In order not to host her Great Aunt Ingrid she must match one more couple before Christmas. Her target is Josiah Weaver, a widower who is in need of a nanny but can that person also be his next love? In Love Delivered by Sarah Price we meet Katie Mae and her father who is wheelchair bound. Due to the unfortunate circumstances their farm is suffering. The bishop has a plan but will Katie Mae accept the help? In Sealed with a Kiss by Jennifer Beckstrand we get to catch up with Anna and Felty from her Huckleberry Hill series. Anna has sent Carolyn to be a babysitter for a large family that is too busy to see to the needs of their children. Will Carolyn fall in love with their uncle or will she run away in frustration?

All three stories start out with a letter known as a circle letter. Person A writes a letter to all and mails it to person B. Person B reads letter A, writes letter B and sends letters A and B to person C. The letters continue until it gets back to the original person who takes out the old letter of theirs and repeats. What an interesting way to communicate not involving electronic communication. I still believe old fashioned letters are the best kind.

This is the perfect book for a cold winter's night of reading in anticipation to Christmas. The stories are romantic and sometimes full of laughter. You will find yourself immersed in the beauty of the Amish and cheering each woman on in her quest for fulfillment.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Kensington through NetGalley. Any and all opinions expressed in the above review are entirely my own.

What a great start to the coming Christmas season. Three delightful, fun and romantic Amish stories that I truly enjoyed reading. All authors brought out their best works in this easy and enjoyable book. I would recommend this book

I enjoyed reading each novella in this book! It certainly put me into the Christmas spirit. Marybeth, Katie Mae and Carolyn, cousins who live in different parts of the country, each have their own love story, and they share their experiences through each story by writing letters to one another and their friends as well. I love how family and children are important parts of each story, and how each woman, in her own way, discover the struggles and triumphs of taking care of someone else's children. Each woman discovers love along the way, though the journey to their happily ever after was full of many obstacles, through their faith in God, they were able to over come the trials and find happiness. I love the idea of Amish Circle Letters, in that you always get news from home or wherever your family lives. With my family spread throughout the country and other countries, it would be a wonderful way to keep in touch, especially with love ones who don't use social media. This book would make a very nice Christmas gift!

I love reading Christmas stories anytime of the year and Amish Christmas stories are even better! The Amish Christmas Letters are 3 stories revolving around a group of Amish cousins and matchmaking.
In the first book Marybeth does NOT want to lose the matchmaking competition so she steps in to help the handsome widower and his young daughter until she can find the perfect match for him. It seemed like a good idea until she starts to get a little too attached to the sweet child and her father.
In the second book (my favorite of the three) Katie Mae is trying to care for her father and the family farm. When the bishop steps in to help, Katie Mae finds her patience and faith tested. She doesn't want a widower and his four children helping her even if the bishop thinks it's the perfect solution.
The final book is probably the most fun of the the three. We get an extremely patient babysitter, a know it all uncle and seven children that will do anything to get their parent's attention..
I loved the holiday atmosphere, the baking, the snow and the reminder that sometimes love is just waiting for the next letter!
I voluntarily received this book through Netgalley.

The Amish Christmas Letters is a trio of novellas by Patricia Davids, Sarah Price, and Jennifer Beckstrand.
All three are heartwarming stories set just before Christmas and sure to get you in the Christmas spirit. They all touch on problems not only English face, but also the Amish. From having a handicapped family member to working parents, then throw in a matchmaker. And you think only you have that one family member you want to avoid, think again, so do the Amish.
All three are tied together by a circle letter. You will want to continue on what the future holds for all of the families.
Netgalley and Kensington Publishers provided a copy of this book for an honest review.

What a great combination of Amish authors, and loved these novella, just the right length to pull me in, and keep my attention.
With a general theme and relationship between each of these authors tell their own story, and with enjoyable results.
What they have in common is a circle letter, before the phone was affordable families and friends used these, and I remember my Mother-In-Law looking for hers to come from her college friends.
By the time I finished this book I wanted to continue with these now mutual friends, and hope to reconnect with these characters in future books.
Of course, I wondered if Felty Jr with be with us again, miss my Annie Bananie.

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.

Very enjoyable Amish Christmas stories! The stories revolve around a circle letter between three maiden cousins. Each of the stories is the about one of the cousin's life during the Christmas season. Each have a special way of meeting their future husband. This book is perfect for the Christmas season. Highly recommended!

Such an enjoyable book. A mix of stories. I love to read about the amish and these authors are the best!
