ABOUT THE BOOK

 

Title:   A Nanny for the Rancher's Twins 

Author:   Heidi Main 

Publisher:   Love Inspired 

Release Date:   October 25, 2022 

Genre:   Contemporary Christian Romance

Returning to small-town Texas was her fresh start.

She never expected a ready-made family. 

What could be better than running a rustic wedding venue? Event planner Laney Taylor has it all laid out…except for the serious renovations her inherited property needs. Rancher Ethan McCaw will help—but only if she’ll nanny his toddler twins. Laney’s all about planning weddings for others and shielding her own heart, but Ethan, Zoe and Tori might be just the ones to change her mind…

EXCERPT:

“I built my house, you know. I could help you. I mean, if you’d reconsider and watch Tori and Zoe for me.”

No way was Laney going to watch a pair of three-year-olds, even if they were adorable. “You’ve got to have other childcare options than me.”

Ethan shook his head. “You’re kind of my last hope.”

“But we barely know each other.”

“Yesterday you engaged with them like a pro. I think you’d do a fine job watching my girls. I was thinking you could nanny them until eleven. My mother will watch them later in the afternoons, so I can help you most days with the renovations, say from three to six? I’ll do whatever you tell me to do.” He moved to the porch and held open the door for her.

He needed help, she needed help. It was a simple exchange of services. Taking care of his sweet girls would not put her independence in peril.

Maybe she should consider his idea. “Okay, let’s give this a try.”

A murder in her yarn shop’s backyard puts Libby Beckett’s holiday plans on thin ice.…

The holiday season looks merry and bright for Libby and her friends at Y.A.R.N. The store is expanding for a holiday boom, and she’s gathered Collinstown’s businesses to decorate a community Christmas tree. Dashing “Gallant Herdsman” Vincenzo Marani arrives to showcase the rare vicuña, whose coat produces the world’s most luxurious yarn. It’s a perfect yuletide—until Libby’s ex-husband, Sterling, turns up in town…and then turns up dead.

The murder unravels Libby’s life faster than a hand-knit Christmas stocking. The luxe yarn goes missing, Sterling’s domineering family comes to town, and the vicuña attempt an escape. If Libby can’t stitch up a solution to the case, she may be trading in her knitting needles for a set of handcuffs.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

 

Leaving Stoney Ridge feels unbearable--but how can she stay?

Impulsive Lydie Stoltzfus has always felt like a disappointment--a square peg in a round hole in her quiet Amish community. Leaving her family and church seems like her best move, even though it would mean leaving Nathan Yoder behind. Nathan claims he's in love with her, but she knows she's not good enough for him. And if she is ever in doubt, Nathan's father reminds her frequently.

Knowing Lydie is "between" jobs again, the local doctor asks her to fill in at the front desk for a few months. This gives Lydie time to figure out how she's going to say goodbye to Nathan--and it gives Dok ample time to recognize the symptoms of a disorder rare among the Amish. She offers Lydie treatment that has the potential to change her life.

But will it be enough to make her stay? Or has help come too late?

MY REVIEW:

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

 

 

A thought-provoking story about a unique Amish woman . . .

 

Lydie Stoltzfus can't seem to hold down a job, and she feels as if she's a constant disappointment to her family, friends, and close Amish community. She flitters from one thing to the next without completing any one task, and she doesn't know how to stay focused. She considers herself a 'misfit.'

 

Her father, David, is the bishop of their community. His patience, kindness, and affection for his daughter are admirable; but he wonders if he is helping her to be the person she was created to be. Her paternal grandmother is extremely critical and harsh of just about everything about Lydie. Just being around her grandmother causes Lydie untold stress and anxiety which makes her inability to focus even greater.

 

Finally, someone close to Lydie who truly understands her strengths and weaknesses steps in to help the struggling young woman. She shares some sage advice and life skills with Lydie. The result of this woman's patience and guidance makes a world of difference for Lydie.

 

Nathan Yoder, a gifted gardener and farmer, is a longtime friend and neighbor of the Stoltzfus family. He is interested in Lydie, but his father has inexplicably warned his son away from their neighbor. In fact, Mr. Yoder goes out of his way to be unkind and obnoxious toward Lydie.

 

I enjoyed learning about Nathan's efforts to turn a portion of his family's farm into an organic garden filled with vegetables and fruits. The author shared a good deal of information about the issue of organic farming that I found interesting.

 

Although Lydie constantly feels overwhelmed, her positive impact on her family and on Nathan is evident. She is creative and clever when it comes to solving problems. She is goodhearted and generous with her time and energy.

 

The faith thread is woven throughout this story in subtle and overt ways. Readers are reminded through Lydie's experiences that we are all created in God's image.

 

I've read several of this author's Amish romances and other fiction genres in the past few years. One of my favorite things about Suzanne Woods Fisher's books is that they deal with tough issues in a straight forward, honest way. She obviously researches her topics thoroughly in preparation for writing the book. Themes from previous books include addiction, recovery, depression, and suicide.  

 

This book is completely clean in language and content.

 

 

I received a copy of this book from the publisher through their Revell Reads Blogger Program. All of my thoughts and opinions shared here are solely my own.
