The Christmas Gift

A shattered life with no path forward. A persistent widower's caring touch. Can love heal the deep wounds of loss this Christmas?

Widow Anna Beiler is grappling with the shards of her shattered life. After her husband Jesse's untimely death, she is left to face mounting debts and the impending loss of their farm. As Christmas nears, her bleak existence is rocked by a proposition from Jonas Fisher—marry his son Uri for financial security or endure a future shrouded in uncertainty and poverty.

When Widow Solomon Yoder hears of Anna’s situation, he offers Anna a lifeline by hiring her as his daytime housekeeper and child carer. Soon a bond is developed through as the quiet strength of Amish life draws them together and a spark of hope for a brighter future develops, but wounds do not heal easily, and each must confront the emotional barriers and deep grief of the past.

As they edge closer, a catastrophic event tests their budding connection—and everything Anna has worked to build is lost. Now, with her life stripped bare once again, Solomon must find a way to do help Anna move on from the past and devises a plan to open Anna’s heart, but can he offer the deeper solace she needs?

The Christmas Gift is a tender exploration of love amidst loss, and the courage to embrace second chances. Will the spirit of the season guide Anna and Solomon through the cold shadow of their pasts, or will the harsh realities of their world freeze the hope of a new beginning? As the Amish community watches on, their decisions will forever alter the course of their lives. Find out in this clean and wholesome Amish romance from Mary Lantz.
