An Amish Reunion is four short stories by four of my favorite authors! I was very happy to get this set from NetGalley. I always enjoy the novellas that come out about Amish families, especially when they have people from stories that I have read and loved. The first story is Their True Home by Amy Clipston. It features Marlene Bawell, who recently moved back to Bird in Hand, where she grew up. She was best friends with Laura, from the Amish Homestead Series. In the story, she goes to work at the local hardware store, owned by Rudy Swarey's (Laura's former boyfriend) family. Marlene and Rudy become fast friends, but both are afraid to try and move past friendship. Each have their own fears and worries, but God may have another plan for them. The next story is A Reunion of Hearts by Beth Wiseman. The story follows Ruth and Gideon Beiler, a couple who experienced the loss of their daughter and couldn't work through their grief. They both left the Amish church but went different directions. When they are called back home for a family reunion, they will have to work through the pain and loss. Can they find their way back to each other? In A Chance to Remember, by Kathleen Fuller, Cevilla Schlabach, the feisty match-maker in some of Fuller's other novels, may finally get a second chance at love. When an old friend, Richard, comes to visit, the two of them spend a lot of time remembering the past and wondering what the future holds. There was also a subplot about Richard's granddaughter that I really enjoyed. As she discovered her heart and where the Lord was leading her, I found her journey to be very heartfelt and close to home. The final story is Mended Hearts by Kelly Irvin. Laura and Zechariah's great granddaughter Hannah has been living with them for two years with her daughter, Evie. Evie's father abandoned them when he found out Hannah was pregnant. Suddenly, he is back and Hannah's world is flipped upside down. Dreams she has forced away come back. But can she forgive him for leaving her alone and breaking her heart? Each of these stories was sweet and enjoyable and brought a smile to my face. I truly enjoy Amish fiction and these four authors are some of the best. I am so grateful to NetGalley for giving me the chance to read and review this book. All opinions are my own.

Wow! Great group of novellas by several of my favorite authors of Amish romance books! Enjoy reading quick stories about characters from different series from each of the authors. Easy to read as a stand-alone book. Great to read as a prolific reader of Amish romance stories as the novellas provide additional info to stories I've previously read. Well-written, great introduction to four of the best Amish writers on the market!

I loved this book. Each of the four stories were very different from each other, and I didn't want them to end. I could have read a full book of any one of the stories. I will definitely read these authors again.

This wonderful book is written by some of my favorite Amish authors! An Amish Reunion has 4 stories and each story is so good! I had a new favorite each time I finished one. I read this book in one day because I couldnt stand leaving it sit. Grab this book right now and enjoy! Thank you to netgalley for gifting me the arc of this book, it was my pleasure to leave this honest review.

An Amish Reunion is a compilation of four books by authors Amy Clipston, Beth Wiseman, Kathleen Fuller and Kelly Irvin.
Their True Home by Amy Clipston is the story of Marlene Bawell as she returns to her childhood home of Bird In Hand. Her father relocated Marlene and her sister after the death of their minds there ten years ago. Marlene is thrilled to be back but for how long? Can she convince her father to stay? And could a old friend be part of her desire to stay? This is a sweet story of new beginnings and letting go of the past.
Beth Wiseman delivers a heartbreaking story of healing in aA Reunion Of Hearts.. I have to admit this was a hard story to read. I found myself crying several times and just not wanting to finish the story. Wiseman somehow conveyed the deep sadness of losing a child and the difficulty in moving on. Topics concerning divorce and therapy aren't common topics when reading Amish fiction. I managed to finish the story and I'm glad I did. There is no happily ever after with stories like this but we no Good give us the strength to face each day.
I was happy to recognize one of my favorite characters from The Farmer's Bride by Kathleen Fuller. A Chance To Remember tells the story of Cevilla Schlabach, a precious older Amish woman that never married but has come to love others in her Amish community as if they were her own. Besides her successful matchmaking skills, she spends her days taking care of her little house and her friends. God is all she needs until a friend from her past shows up unexpectedly at her door. And past means almost 70 years before when they were classmates and Cevilla was Amish. Is the spark still there or did old age take away their chance for love? This is a great story on so many levels. It applies to both Amish and English.
Mended Hearts by Kelly Irvin talks about intimacy before marriage and a teenage pregnancy. Not typical Amish story plots to say the least. Hannah Kaufman finds herself alone and pregnant after her intended runs away before they are married. Two years later Hannah has completed the punishment from the church and is raising her daughter. Life is still far from perfect. While trying to recover from a broken heart and the whispers from the community Hannah wants to move on with her life. Just when the possibility of a comfortable future and a loving father for her daughter seems certain who should show up but the love from her past. Now what? Can she get past her anger and forgive or does she move on with her safe choice knowing it wouldn't be fair to anyone? I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is easy to assume the Amish aren't faced with problems like these. The honesty and reliance on God's Word is how all problems should be solved.
I voluntarily received a copy of this book from NetGalley.

I read this book out in one day. It's so good, The writers take you along in the story as if you are right there. Just love it.

All of the stories in this book were outstanding. They were very well written and keep you turning the pages, A word of caution, Don"t start reading this book close to bedtime because you will be up until you finish it! Thank you Zondervan via NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book. This is my honest opinion and I highly recommend this book.

Wow....I had gotten used to the formulaic writing of these four-book omnibuses, but this one really surprised me! Each of the stories plays around the central theme of reunification of a couple, whether previously romantically involved or not, but all four are very different stories. One involves friends who have suffered loss, another involves a couple who had a child out of wedlock, and yet another involves the loss of a child. My favorite, however, involved an elderly couple from different backgrounds -- it was my favorite because I recently read a full-length novel featuring these two (further down the road) and it was so sweet to have this backstory and understand where and how their relationship began. Many of these stories are tie-ins to full-length novels, or even series, that add interesting tidbits. If you find one that's connected to something you've read, you'll probably enjoy it the most! That said, you do not have to have read anything else to both follow and enjoy these stories.

All four novellas in An Amish Reunion captured, and held, my attention. I liked them all. It was interesting to read the back story of Cevilla and Richard, since I have come across those two delightful characters in other books. What a good way to introduce readers to four outstanding authors!

A great selection of four Amish novellas. I liked them all, but especially liked the third one: the story of Cevilla and Richard, both in their 80s, and connect after many years. For some reason that one was the sweetest story, and touched my heart. All have a good story though, and enjoyed them all. Would highly recommend this book and these authors.
