Overview
Join the fun. You are invited to the wedding of John Lapp and Nurse Hal. Family and friends have gathered to cook, clean and plan. Men have put up a tent for the guests, so put on your bonnet or felt hat, hitch up your buggy and take a ride by scenic pastures and rolling hills to Wickenburg, Iowa. Take a seat on a bench next to Hal's folks. They will be glad to explain the ceremony, because they came armed with Aunt Tootie's book on Amish customs. You will find a few surprises when little Daniel Lapp interrupts the bishop when he asks if anyone objects to the couple's marriage. Oh and Stella Strutt has some sort of fit. It will be the most talked about Amish wedding for years to come. Hal's married life is downhill from there. She refuses to give up her car and cell phone. Getting caught by Stella Strutt at the Old Thrasher Reunion on a “joy ride” doesn't help her avoid punishment. Is Hal going to get sent away before she gets settled in? Stick around after the wedding and find out, why don't you?

About the author
Hello! I'm Fay Risner. I go by booksbyfay online. I enjoy writing about Amish life in the Nurse Hal Among The Amish series. As well as those books, I write a historical Amazing Gracie mystery series set in Iowa and Stringbean Hooper westerns. Also, I've written two books about Alzheimer's disease. I worked for many years in a nursing home and helped my mother care for my father which gave me insight about what caregivers deal with. A romance such as Christmas With Hover Hill thrown into the mixture of books is a good way to switch genres. When an idea comes to me, I write the story. Changing genres gives me flexibility as a writer. All my books are designed to offer some humor along with the serious moments. I write in 12 font to make my books reader friendly, and all my stories are suitable for any age group. My husband and I live on an acreage with chickens, rabbits, cats and through the summer months a herd of goats. We enjoy raising a large garden and flowers. For fun, we go fishing in the summer and read a lot of books in the winter.
