Advance praise for
Jenny’s Choice
by Patrick E. Craig…
“From the first page I felt a tender compassion for Jenny, the young woman in this novel. Her story unfolds with a gentle hand and a lyrical tone that leads to an ending filled with hope. As with the other books in the Apple Creek Dreams series, you’ll want to read this book in one sitting. Preferably with a cup of tea.”
Robin Jones Gunn,
bestselling author of the Glenbrooke series and the Christy Miller series
“Patrick Craig’s Apple Creek Dreams series is both poetic and sincere. Strong characters who deal with the grief and joy of everyday life make these stories you’ll remember long after you reach the last page….
Jenny’s Choice
is a tender story of grief, restoration, and grace.”
Vannetta Chapman,
author of the Pebble Creek Series
“Patrick Craig’s artistry is like a buggy ride across the Amish countryside. It’s a gentle, bouncing journey through bucolic farmland blended with a compelling story of family, romance, and faith. Delight yourself to the perfect escape with
Jenny’s Choice
.”
Michael K. Reynolds,
author of the acclaimed Heirs of Ireland Series
