The Wedding Quilt Bride

GIVEAWAY
PERRY, MARTA
THE WEDDING QUILT BRIDE

The single mom's second chance...to become one of the Brides of Lost Creek!

Widow Rebecca Mast returns to her Amish community with her son and a dream -- to own a quilt shop. Carpenter Daniel King is determined to help Rebecca and revive their childhood friendship. But as he bonds with her son, Rebecca's afraid the secret she's been keeping will be revealed. Can Daniel convince Rebecca he's a man she can trust - and love?

My Review:

Astonishingly good! Maybe my favourite by Marta Perry. I think it's the way this story revolves around community that tugged at my heart. Extending a hand and, more importantly, being willing to accept the help of others, plays over and over again in this story in so many beautiful, moving ways.

Daniel and Rebecca were never sweethearts but they were good friends until Rebecca moved away to marry. During their time apart, they've both lived through personal tragedies, both harboring secrets that hold them back from courting.

Rebecca isn't the carefree, high-spirited girl Daniel remembers from his childhood. She's inexplicably guarded and tense but Daniel catches unexpected glimpses of the easygoing girl he used to know. I love how this romance grows from sweet childhood memories. There's a wariness in both hero and heroine but so much tenderness as well. These two are challenged in ways that draw them together and it's their faith that ultimately allows them to create something enduring and beautiful -- just like the quilts Rebecca makes.

  3. I always like Marta Perry, and you say this is possibly your favorite! High praise. Wouldn't it be nice to own a beautiful Amish quilt? One can dream, right? I have done some very beginner quilting, a wall hanging and a throw for the sofa. There are so many people who are truly artisans with the craft. Thanks!
