    America's Leading Author of Amish Fiction

    -------------------------

    Ms. Price always knew that she wanted to be a writer.

    Born into a Mennonite family with roots in Pennsylvania dating back to the early 1700s, Sarah Price has written over 50 novels, most of them set in the bucolic Amish countryside of Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Ohio. She bases her novels on her own authentic experience with the Amish, which dates back to 1978 and includes living on multiple farms and with different Amish families.

    Her novels have won her numerous best-seller rankings throughout the years, although the achievement she is most proud of is hitting #8 on all of Amazon with her novel, An Empty Cup.

    Today, Ms. Price writes full-time from Branded, her thirty-acre ranch in North-Central Florida where wild mustangs are rescued, retrained, and rehomed.

    During the early 1700s, the Preiss family arrived in America aboard an old sailing vessel called the Patience. The family left Europe, escaping Catholic persecution for their Anabaptist beliefs. Sarah Price comes from a long line of devout Mennonites, including numerous church leaders and ministers throughout the years. Her involvement with the Amish dates back to 1978 when her Mennonite grandparents took her to Lancaster County. Her writing reflect accurate and authentic stories based upon her own experiences with several Amish communities.

    Ms. Price holds advanced degrees in Communication (MA), Marketing (MBA), and Educational Leadership (PhD). She is also an ordained minister.

4.0 out of 5 stars Three Novellas to Bring Christmas Joy
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2018

The three novellas in The Amish Christmas Letters center on the primary characters being cousins in each tale and writing circle letters to one another. Each novella is filled with laughter, tears, romance and some adorable children that made each story.

Patricia Davids penned Marybeth’s Circle Letter that explored the contest she had with her cousin Wilma in being a matchmaker. Marybeth taking a job as a nanny so she made another match before Christmas may just be the best match ever.

Loved Delivered by Sarah Price brought Katie Mae Kauffman and Nathaniel Miller being given a proposal about their farms by the bishop. Katie caring for her father, a stroke survivor, and a farm needed some renewal life to it. Will a small child brightened Abraham Kauffman’s life?

Sealed With a Kiss by Jennifer Beckstrand has young Carolyn Yutzy’s caring for children who’s parents are to busy working to see to their needs. Anna and Felty grandson, Aaron misunderstanding of them sending Carolyn to Greenwood to help his brother caused a lot of remarks that were hurtful. Who’s going to see the light first—Abraham, Aaron, Carolyn or Anna and Felty?

This collection of novellas is perfect to read during the busy Christmas season.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read!
Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2018
The Amish are known for their circle letters – letters written, then sent on to other friends or family members who live around the country.

Three cousins, writing their letters at Christmastime, share events occurring in their lives.

Each year, Marybeth Martin, runs a friendly competition with another cousin, to see who can make the most romantic “matchmaker” matches among their friends. Marybeth only needs one more before the end of the year to win, but has very few prospects. She finds a widower in the community who might work as her next match, but finds some surprising obstacles.

Cousin Katie Mae Kauffman discovers through special needs for both a widower with 4 children, and the needs of her father and her, that by working together, they may be able to be a great help to each other. They barely tolerate each other, only to find as time progresses that they may really like each other. Will love blossom and cause a combination of families to become one loving family? This seems like a highly impossible solution.

Carolyn Yutzy, with her heart of gold, is convinced to go help a couple in need of someone to help with their 7 children. They are a highly unruly brood who give her much grief. Their uncle Aaron, a devout perfectionist bachelor, makes it very clear that Carolyn knows nothing about babysitting, cleaning, or anything else. When he and Carolyn have to join forces to bring the unruly brood, whose parents are too busy working to give the children their time, to some kind of better behavior, there are many times of love/hate. Carolyn is fired as the babysitter and sent home. Aaron discovers maybe she wasn’t to blame for all that happened and wasn’t as bad as he thought. Will he discover that maybe he might have been wrong in his opinion – he who never admits he is wrong about anything?

This was a very delightful Christmas read. I highly recommend it to readers to see how each girl’s situation is solved.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Kensington through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

3.0 out of 5 stars Three Amish ladies finding love against the odds...
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2018
Set out in the form of the traditional Amish circle letter, "The Amish Christmas Letters" explores the lives of three Amish ladies finding love against the odds. Unfortunately, the odds include bratty, self-centered men who should be grateful for the attention of these independent, intelligent women. The book offends my western feminist worldview and I had to consistently remind myself that feminine and masculine roles are defined by the people living the roles and that I should therefore withhold my judgement. While the formatting was a good idea, it fell flat and instead the book was experienced merely as a book of separate short stories. -- Leza Bredenkamp
