Sweeter Than Honey by Kelly Irvin
Shattering a jar of pickled beets wasnt the impression Isabella hoped to make on her first trip to the local Combination Store of Bee County, Texas. But as embarrassed as she was by the accident, she didnt think it warranted the frosty reaction from the handsome manager of the store, Will Glick. As she soon learns, though, Wills heart has been broken one too many times. And now, for some reason, Isabella finds herself determined to be the one to repair that broken heart and renew his faith in love.
Love in Store by Vannetta Chapman
Stella Schrock works at the Old Mill in Nappanee, Indiana, with new employee David Stoltzfus, a recent widower. When strange happenings begin occurring around town, it appears as if someone wants to close the mill. Stella and David have to work together to solve the mystery of what is happening at the Old Amish Mill, and in the process they might just find that God has more in store for their future than they would ever have dreamed possible.
4 stars. 'This charming collection of four novellas will have fans of the genre booking a trip to their nearest Amish market or tourist community. Sweet love stories, gentle nudges of faith and even a dash of suspense combine nicely with characters who feel like dear friends. While the romance is especially breath-stealing in Fullers A Bid for Love, Chapmans Love In Store may be the most delightfully unique of the bunch --- a romantic suspense story featuring a slightly older pair of protagonists.' * RT Book Reviews *
