The Christmas Quilt - (Shadow Lake) by Lenora Worth (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

It's wedding time at Pennsylvania's historic Shadow Lake Inn--and at least one of the Amish King sisters is waiting on a proposal...

Award-winning New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestselling author Lenora Worth's third Shadow Lake inspirational romance series features independent Amish sisters who run a historic inn located near Lake Erie, Pennsylvania. It's a satisfying life of simplicity and peace, but when Collette King's former beau returns home with another woman on his arm at her sister's wedding, it upends her very life...

As the holidays approach, Collette King is eager for Matthew Mueller's return to Shadow Lake. Especially now that she has finally surrendered to the truth--that the friend she has known forever, the first man she ever kissed, is the one she longs to spend her life with. So when Mattie shows up at her sister's wedding with another woman on his arm, Collette's hopes are shattered. To heal her broken heart, she begins a quilt honoring her memories of Mattie. But every square she adds only makes her yearn for him more . . .

Matthew's new inheritance comes with a lot of responsibilities--including his late-uncle's deathbed request that he marry the woman who was his ward. But from the moment Mattie sees Collette again, he wishes he could escape his familial duty, even though doing so could bring scandal upon his mamm and daed. Will his desire to protect his parents cost him the life--and the love--he dreams of? Or can faith work a Christmas miracle that blesses all . . .
