Book Description:
In 1915 Ohio, anyone entering the Amish Charm Bakery is greeted by the sweet warmth and delicious fragrance of cinnamon and vanilla wafting from freshly baked cookies and pies. And newcomers to this Amish community will find friendship on the menu, too—and perhaps for a lucky few, even lasting love . . .
Rachael Schlabach’s first chance for a husband ended in a tragic accident that left her with a limp. Though happy to work in the beloved Amish Charm Bakery, she hasn’t abandoned her romantic dreams, but she has focused on a widower with two adorable kinner she would love to raise as her own. Then handsome, single Caleb Yutzy arrives on the scene . . .
Caleb is eager to court pretty, warm-hearted Rachael, and tells her so. But their frank conversations reveal a truth that dashes her hopes—Caleb very much wants kinner, the one thing Rachael can’t give him. Even when Caleb assures her it’s no matter,
she can’t bring herself to be so selfish. Yet love is beyond all planning, and with faith Rachael and Caleb may discover the lifetime of love they were meant to share . . .
My Thoughts: A Tug at Your Heartstrings Story
I found Rachel's Decision to be a tug at your heartstrings story with many ups and downs. The story is one of love vs. obligations and circumstances, truths that can keep love at bay, and obstacles that turn the road to love into a bumpy ride loaded with detours. It is also a story of love and support of community and friends. However, most importantly, it is a story of faith and trusting God and His will, which has the power to overcome anything.
I fully enjoyed Rachel and Caleb's story. It had me on an emotional roller coaster, taking me from happy to sad to frustrated and to hopeful. Nevertheless, the end result was that it left me with a smile on my face.
I greatly enjoyed this wonderful Amish romance story and recommend that you add it to your TBR pile.

About the Author: Molly Jebber
A bit about me . . . .
I was raised in a small town in Ohio. If you had blinked twice, you would've missed it. It's grown by leaps and bounds. I've always found the Amish life interesting. I've enjoyed the many times I've visited their communities and learned about their lifestyle. Creating historical Amish characters and throwing them into difficult situations and joyous times has been challenging and fun. The greatest reward I've experienced in becoming an author is meeting wonderful people from all over the world who've been encouraging and supportive. I enjoy traveling and speaking for Women's Christian Connection and telling my personal story, and speaking at libraries, conferences, women's groups, community groups, and more about Amish lifestyles and traditions, my books, writing, publishing, and marketing. I love God, family, friends, and swimming, golf, walks on the beach, reading, and writing are fun. I say no to skydiving and onions!
