About the Author
Fascinated by the Amish people during the years of visiting her husband’s family in Pennsylvania, WANDA E. BRUNSTETTER combined her interest with her writing and now has eleven novels about the Amish in print, along with numerous other stories and ministry booklets. She lives in Washington State, where her husband is a pastor, but takes every opportunity to visit Amish settlements throughout the states.==

I enjoyed this book. The author has a simply writing style that makes the story easy to follow. Will Henderson reads a newspaper article about a three year old girl who has been abandoned. The piece haunts him about his past. He’s been abandoned by his biological father, and he longs to find peace about the turmoil that consumes him. Why did his father leave him with an Amish family, without making any contact afterwards? Will wants answers and his distress hovers on the horizon as he plans for his nuptials to Karen Yoder.

Karen realizes Will is troubled by his past, but she longs to lighten the mood between herself and her fiancé. Is their marriage going to be riddled with Will’s emotional mood swings and his constant jealous nature?
Although the story flowed nicely, I felt there were some parts that were somewhat predictable. I also felt that there were too many buggy accidents and people getting hurt or ill in the story, but, otherwise White Christmas Pie was an enjoyable read that I would recommend to all who like a good Amish story. I’d be interested in reading other books by this author.
