Fans of Amish Fiction discussion

It's time to start nominations for February's Christian Fiction group read. I used the list of categories from the Theme thread and using Random.org, it selected:

Love Inspired Historical

Rules:
1. Nominations are open until the 14th of the month. Rachel will let us know which book has "won" on the 15th.
2. Books must be Christian fiction, or "clean" fiction to be eligible for this read.
3. Books are chosen using Random.org to make it completely fair.
3. One nomination per person.

Nominations so far:

1. Homespun Bride by Jillian Hart - Rachel
2. The Rancher's Courtship by Laurie Kingery - Lorie
3. Her Healing Ways by Lyn Cote - Diane
4. Courting Miss Adelaide (Noblesville, Indiana Series, Book 1) by Janet Dean - Kate
5. The Widow's Secret by Sara Mitchell - Camille

I nominate A simple winter by Rosalind Lauer.

Janet, did you mean to post this under the Amish group read nominations?

I'm going to nominate Homespun Bride by Jillian Hart, which I think may still be free on Kindle?

I'm nominating The Rancher's Courtship by Laurie Kingery

I second that Janet. I received it for Christmas and would love to jump in.

Ladies, if you'd like to nominate this book please pop over to the Amish group reads nominations thread here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/7... This topic is for our alternative, non-Amish group read. Thanks! :)

My bad -- I just assumed it was a Love Inspired Historical. Never mind. 8-P (That's me looking silly!)

No worries, LOL! There are so many discussions going on this group I often get things confused too. Sometimes I click on the wrong thread without realising it and get really confused :P <-- me looking silly also!

I nominate The Widow's Secret by Sara Mitchell

Rebecca, nominations for this month are for Harlequin's Love Inpsired Historical series. Jenna's Cowboy does not qualify; although it does look like a good read! Please feel free to make another selection.

Only a couple of days lefts to nominate a book for February's group read. Please get your choices in soon!

It's the 15th! And according to Random.org next month's group read is...

#1 Homespun Bride by Jillian Hart!

I've had this on my Kindle for ages, looking forward to finally reading this! Thank you to everyone for your nominations, I, to be honest, would have been happy to have read any of these books, they all looked great :)

I've seen Jillian Hart on Goodreads several times, maybe she can answer quaetions for us.

I've had this one for awhile too! I love it when I'm ahead of the game.

Yes, Jillian is very active over on the 'Love Inspired Historicals' group here on GoodReads, so she very well might be able to answer any questions anyone has! :)
I read 'Homespun Bride' last spring and quite enjoyed it. I hope you all will enjoy it as much as I did! :)

Jillian is on a deadline at the moment but I am sure if she can she would pop in.

I notice that Homespun Bride is #10 in Jillian's McKaslin Clan series. For those that have read this book does it read fine as a stand alone or have you already read other books in the series first?

Its the first in her historical books on the McKaslins so should be able to read it on its own.

I read it last spring as a stand-alone, and it's absolutely fine that way. I believe it's about the ancestors of her 'modern' McKaslin clan. :)
